Security guarantees has apparently become a euphemism for Western Europe funding Americas military-industrial complex

Can the EU manage to go even a single week without begging to be cucked? Spoiler alert: Nope. This time, they even boarded a plane for a transatlantic booty call.

"Security guarantees." That's what the Western European establishment keeps demanding for Ukraine. And now it looks like US President Donald Trump has found a way to monetize it at the EU's expense - a cost that will, naturally, be passed down directly to European citizens.

When the idea of a peace deal was first floated earlier this year, the UK and France tried tohype upthe concept of putting 30,000 EU troops in Ukraine - but only if peace broke out long enough to render the exercise glaringly useless and redundant. The plan depended on US air cover babysitting them while they did pushups, burpees, and awkward small talk with the American corporate contractors who would no doubt move in to monetize the latest frontier of shock-and-awe liberation.

But EU citizens seemed unmoved, and the elected officials who rely on them to remain in their cushy seats of power knew it. Apparently, a militarized Burning Man in a "liberated" Ukraine doesn't exactly sell to Europeans.

Next, Western Europeans were carpet-bombed with stereoscopic rhetoric about the necessity to blow a ton of cash on weapons so Europe could guarantee BOTH its own security and Ukraine's. Without even actually being in the EU, Ukraine was already being treated like the free perfume sample tossed into every shopping bag at Sephora - the one that makes your groceries reek whether you wanted it or not.

And because Ukraine had become rhetorically inseparable from the EU, the Eurojokers in charge started invoking a future Russian invasion date for Europe of 2030. It's like a new form of hypochondria. Except instead of reading about a disease online and convincing yourself that you have it, they started believing that Russia was invading them just from observing events in Ukraine.

This "2030 invasion" propaganda seems to have originated from NATO-adjacent think tanks like the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, which last yearcited2030 as the date of Russia's "military reconstitution." The RAND Corporation has alsowarnedof a "revanchist Russia" in a report on the "future of warfare in 2030" that will fight "its neighbors." NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte then parlayed all this into a demand for European members of the US-led weapons lobby to cough up 5% of GDP in defense spending, up from the 2% previously demanded at Trump's insistence.

The Euroclowns started trying to get buy-in through active audience participation, telling citizens to pack canned tuna and water into go-bags in preparation for Putin's 2030 arrival. They even floated the idea of citizens investing in special financial products to fund European defense. If you forego just one Starbucks visit per week, maybe you can help buy a whole tank someday for someone who really needs it.

Scary times indeed! Better obey Daddy Trump via NATO and pledge 5% of GDP on weapons while the local boulangerie struggles to crank out baguettes thanks to insane energy costs. Maybe we can all make life easier for the clowns trying to triangulate all this and just eat bullets instead?

It became clear a while ago that this whole "security guarantee" charade was a pretext for the weapons racket. Europe has even ramped up weapons factory production to triple speed,according tothe Financial Times. Now sit back and watch them screw it up.

One-one-thousand. Two-one-thousand...

Well, that didn't take long. NATO has justapplaudedGermany's commitment to fund "a $500 million package of military equipment and munitions for Ukraine sourced from the United States, under NATO's new Prioritized Ukraine Requirements List (PURL) initiative." It has alsoemergedthat the EU's favorite dependent, Ukraine, will now blow $100 billion of its allowance on AMERICAN weapons - for the same "security guarantees" that the EU keeps hyping up. Ukraine is now like a kid betting online with the EU's credit card, plopping it on red, fully aware that every chip is going straight into the pockets of some other guy across the ocean.

After Trump met with EU leaders, Rutte, and Zelensky at the White House on Monday, hewrote onlinethat "during the meeting we discussed Security Guarantees for Ukraine, which Guarantees would be provided by the various European Countries, with a co-ordination with the United States of America."

"Security guarantees" has apparently now become a euphemism for Europe funding America's military-industrial complex while the US mostly coordinates the intake of European taxpayer cash. After all, Trump explicitly said that Europe would do most of the heavy lifting for those "guarantees."

No doubt the US will be too busy with Ukrainian mineral deals Trump is setting up to focus on much else. Maybe just the security around those. Why doesn't the EU insist on just being a part of that? Not fiscally masochistic enough?

Meanwhile, EU leaders continue brainwashing themselves with their own propaganda. "Peace must be achieved through strength... We must have strong security guarantees to protect both Ukraine and Europe's vital security interests," saidunelectedEuropean Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. "If we are weak today with Russia, we will prepare for tomorrow's conflicts, and they will affect the Ukrainians. So no weakness. Basically, what we are going to say is that we want peace... but we want a robust peace," French President Emmanuel Macron said before the White House meeting.

He wants the kind of peace that punches potential future adversaries in the face - preemptively. And Trump seems only too thrilled to indulge and profit off the EU's self-imposed psychosis.
