    If Europeans don’t make weapons of war, someone will eventually conquer them.

    And y’know, we have yet to see open, full-scale war between atomic powers. Nuclear deterrence seems to work (for now).

        America’s weapons would probably have expired on the shelf if they weren’t used in Ukraine.
