US Air Force Deploys Over 24 KC-135 and KC-46 Tankers to Europe
In a major strategic redeployment, more than 24 U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotankers and KC-46 Pegasus aerial refueling aircraft crossed the Atlantic on the night of June 16, 2025. The unusual mass movement of tanker aircraft departed from North America and headed eastbound, with flight patterns suggesting a coordinated redeployment rather than routine operations, according to military analysts.

Wait a minute! During the campaign, Trump promised that there would be no wars during his administration. Of course, he also stated that he’d end the Ukraine War in one day. He will do anything to stay in the spotlight because he is an egomaniac, and a bully. He really does not worry about campaign promises because he, and other candidates will say and promise anything to be elected. The fact that he know that he cannot run again, means he does not need to worry about being popular, and the Supreme Court has made him all but infallible. I see World War III as a real possibility.
As a Marine grunt, this country still hasn't learned from Korea, Vietnam, Somalia, Iraq and Afghanistan. If Congress doesn't have the balls to declare war, stay the hell away and support only those countries who are willing to risk the lives of their own citizens (like Ukraine) versus American. All we need is WWIII because two ego-maniacs (Trump and Putin) decide to duke it out.
The country will never learn……..USA has to be in or supportive of ANY conflict to pay off the military industrial complex. Look back at history and open your eyes…..
You're correct. The military industrial complex(MIC) wants to keep this country in a war(s). In the late 1950s, Ike warned about letting the MIC get too strong. But, we didn't listen and after all of those years we keep getting involved in conflicts that we don't have any business being in.
As a Vietnam Veteran grunt, my eyes are WIDE open. It pains me to see to see a monument memorializing 58,000+ lives lost for nothing. Then add those lost in the other mentioned conflicts. All lost because Congress didn't have balls to declare war.
Just because something has been done incorrectly in the past doesn't mean it should be accepted, much less tolerated, with more American lives paying the price in vain. Wringing one's hands and saying "Look at history" is like being in a car headed for a canyon and doing nothing. Put on the damn brakes!

Fully agree with Alan Zielinski.
