Your posts are full with inconsistencies. “They have air superiority for the entire war” vs “they established a no-fly zone”, both statements are wrong. They never had a no-fly zone! Seeking resort in words as simp lead me to the simple conclusion that you don’t know what you’re talking about, to use your own language. If you have to such fundamental differences between a few posts you’re already giving your limited knowledge away.
Also European NATO does not exist. NATO relies on the US as their backbone in every sense of the word, no US means operational problems, I’ve already outlined that. Otherwise it would evolve in a European army under article 42. To go back to your initial post that Poland alone would smash them, no they wouldn’t yet and it’s not that easy, otherwise we wouldn’t have seen the 800b of investments, logically. Ukraine has the best European army at this moment, if they aren’t able to fully stop or win the war, Poland alone as you said, wouldn’t be either. Going from your arguments the continental investments would make no sense. You’re neglecting the underlying problems within Europe’s defence.
Europe needs a few years to prepare, it doesn’t matter where you look you’ll find the same answer everywhere. As things stand today, Europe is not ready without the US and certainly not isolated countries alone. We aren’t ready on a political level, not on a manufacturing level and certainly not on an operational level. Give it some time and I’m sure that we’ll be able to fix that, although it’s long overdue.
