Army Chief: The US Needs More Troops in Europe

    By Caroline Houck

November 15, 2017


The U.S. is "on track," but additional armored forces, long-range artillery and bridging capabilities would help deter Russia, Milley says.

In order for the U.S. military to do its primary job in Europe — deter Russian aggression — America will need to send more troops there in the coming years, Army Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Milley said today.

No we don't.

"Deter" Russia?
From what?

At the rate Western Europe is going, it's going to be overrun by islam within fifty years, probably irrevocably. Some countries may fall even sooner.

The Russians, of all people, seem to stand up to the muslims well enough (at least in their own lands) when terrorists strike them.

If Western Europe is in the process of collapsing to islam, perhaps the Russians will invade and drive the muslims out.

Would WE do that?
