If they couldnt make the Taliban bend the knee or the NVA bend the knee, I dont think they'll be able to do it to Europe, do you?

- _DeadFred_ 2y agoUS military flights are EXTREMELY expensive. Deny the US bases close to the place the US cares and you can DRAMATICALLY drive up military costs instantly. We have an incredibly soft underbelly because we have allies and don't have to worry about a lot of details. If suddenly we start getting pressure at every possible pain point/cost point we'd be fucked. Prevent US naval supply. Push American hubris and drive the US into thinking they are doing some 'Berlin Airlift 2.0' and gung-ho Americans will burn through our military $$$s. There's thousands of ways to 'death by 1000 cuts' America's military budget. We take for granted our partners support and can't afford our military without it. Make each and every base an island that has to be completely provided for by the home country, in every detail, with military resources. No civilian transport of supplies for anything. Force it all through military ports/military airports, every last drop of diesel, every moving electron, we'll see how for the US military budget goes.
