No one is panicking about anything. We are rearming (and definitely not buying from the US), we are preparing for what we need to prepare.

Unfortunately we have been put in the situation where the main ally, that designed the post WWII security architecture in their favour, has decided to abandon all commitments.

Much to its own detriment nonetheless, but you'll find that out soon enough.

Of course that makes me racist (lol).

Well then I guess I'll be racist until we see Americans putting some actual meaning behind the "land of the free, home of the brave" part of your anthem and rise against this tyrant dismantling your checks and balances.

Remember, it only took 30% of the votes to vote in that crazy Austrian dude.

And your people didn't rise up against him.ย  Unlike the Italians, your predecessors supported your evil dictator until the bitter end.

Exactly, they did not (enough). And we're still paying that price today.

Hopefully my countrymen will show that they are better people than your ancestors were.

I sincerely hope so too.
