The United States attended India's International Fleet Review and MILAN 2026 training events, just days before attacking an unarmed Iranian warship that had also been in attendance.

India held their first MILAN event in 1995, and has since hosted additional events every two years. The event requires vessels be unarmed or carrying minimal munitions. The United States had also previously attended in 2022 and 2024.

The Iranian ship was attacked on March 4, less than a week after the conclusion of MILAN 2026 on February 26.

Having frequently attended these exercises, the United States likely knew the IRIS Dena was not carrying munitions as they torpedoed the returning Iranian vessel.

I love how you can't even see the name of the paper, but everyone just instinctually knows it couldn't be anything other than an American publication.

Believe me folks, America is respected again like it has never been respected before... America is now the hottest country in the world...

Did you not read the fucking source linked?

Ironic.

If you had read the source I linked, you would see that it contradicts your point.

Rare earths aren't just used in batteries, lol

Yes, it is more so the efficient processing and refining that is rare.

You can make a T-shirt anywhere, but if you have to first build your own cotton farms and factories locally, construction will take years and your shirts will cost 10x more.

I think bombs dropping on heads will still affect daily life.

If it's any consolation, you already did.
