It exports crude oil, but has not enough refining capacity for its own consumption.

I have no idea how much cost a tank actually, neither the drone

Tank can cost about 20 mil minimum, drone price is about correct.

actually I just have no idea of what I’m talking about, who am I again?

a contender for CEO of Rheinmetall?

I mean, maybe you shouldn’t have killed your people in a war of useless aggression?

There’s only one gender who has to die in his wars.

He won’t.

He can’t. The US entered NATO through an act of Congress; Congress has to decide if the US leaves.

It’s a calque of Chinese. It has come to be used so often because of 1) its obvious meaning and 2) the increase in global wars.

~10 years before we start to see used BYD’s and such falling into the hands of the working class.

A ten year-old electric will have it’s battery completely worn out. That’s why EVs devalue and essentially end up a junk faster than conventional ICEs.

Probably, but it’s not like they could do much about it.

Specially Australia; it’s an Island in the middle of nowhere that has to import everything.

Regardless of whom he supports, the oil prices are still going to stay up for him, since he has no production of his own to compensate.

Then may I ask what is exactly?

Nationalists and Communists putting aside their differences?

It’s a sign that there’s much bigger trouble ahead.

President Donald Trump threatened to destroy all of Iran’s power plants, oil wells, and desalinization plants

Most likely Iran has a secondary strike capability. Israel and GCC also have desal plants, you know.

“Hitler says he will widen his invasion of Poland”

A back deal with Russia is happening somewhere.

To put it simply, the US did lose more troops and equipment in 1991 and 2003 than currently, but also achieved their objectives, so to speak.

Then again, the 1991 war was a real war with with close to 1 million troops taking part. Currently, what we have is basically two countries lobbing missiles at each other.

Ironically, in 1991, it was the US that was using drones against Iraq. Tables have kinda turned.

The second one? Nope, the country pretty much was in shambles already.

Coalition losses during 1991 Desert Storm were around 300. For the 2003 invasion and occupation, the losses were of about 5000. Though I think they lost more aircraft during the former.
