Motherfucker, you say this is releasing within the year. How is this “very early”? It should be in the polishing up stages by any reasonable, professional timeline.
Don’t worry, they’ll speed up the dev and QA time with AI.
Et on ne l’a pas fait par hasard, il est là pour signaler qu’on ne touche pas à Hormuz parce qu’on a besoin de notre pétrole.
Le bateau est déployé près de Chypre, parce que Chypre a été frappé et Chypre est un membre de l’OTAN. C’était plus que prévisible.
Je suis d’accord que la présence militaire “pour contrer la menace terroriste” est de base liée aux actions des US, Israel, Europe, qui définissent que se défendre contre invasions militaires et génocides est automatiquement une menace terroriste. Mais pour le CDG, c’est Chypre et l’OTAN, ça pouvait pas se passer autrement.
The opinion of every US administration the last decades, Obama, Biden, Trump has been that Europe should spend more on defense instead of relying on US.
The US makes weapons, sell weapons, and controls the countries they sell those weapons to. Trump doesn’t get any of that and broke the control that US had on everyone. He’s the reason countries suddenly started getting worried that the US could turn off the planes they sold them whenever they wanted. The US has bases in every country, and Trump is the reason people are suddenly getting worried about them.
When they used to say Europe should spend more, it’s by buying American.
Beside the specific excuse given for Naboo, there’s more to trade than basic life sustainability - there’s still material coming in and out for all sorts of technologies. Andor recently had an entire planet get strip-mined for its core made of a crystal that was super rare everywhere else, for one. Naboo can easily need some material for hyperspace travel or whatever that doesn’t exist on site, or not in sufficient quantity.
It’s easily observed in History right here too, where most Bronze Age cultures in the Mediterrannean collapsed when trade routes for tin and copper got burned down. People survived, but civilization and writing went into a Dark Age there.
