Most countries that do not want to be on USA's shit list, that are also NATO members, had better mobilize a few forces.

If not, for stability via deterrence. (also known as "peace").

Not sure if it's necessarily in support of Trump but more finding a neutral way to navigate the situation and keep the trade lanes open. (Britain is one of those European countries that has been bought off by trade deals with countries like Iran and Saudi)

Wasn't that due to being a EU member? Or was it Britain's own decision?

They all end up making these little "investment" deals with these types of countries. Pretty sure Britain was one of the countries like Germany where Iran made a specific "Investment" deal with them after they got all that money. They were buying support. For example, how this works with other countries like Saudi... Saudi got in some hot water when they purposely executed a peaceful dissident under the guise of executing terrorists. Pressure became strong enough the family/allies of that guy got a meeting with the PM of Britain so he could pressure the Saudis for the release of other innocents..... PM met with the Saudis a few days later and announced a new 8-10 billion dollar investment deal.... no mention of the killing of innocents. (Saudi bought them off with the investments)

Oh, great. We try to have a war and the British are going to show up and have a damn cocktail party and watch. They probably won't bring limes and we'll have to give them ours for their gin and tonics.....We should start calling them limey's.

you are not paying attention or your need to be an attention whore is affecting your judgement.

POTUS has said he doesn’t want war.

your other comment is plain racism.
