JD Vance says "We have no idea what's going on and are too busy robbing people"
We don't need to be inserting our military or projecting power into this. I would like to see us broker a lasting peace without lobbying for national self interest. It'd probably be a good idea to offer to work with China here, as I seriously doubt that they want to see a nuclear exchange happen next door. This war won't help anyone, especially if nukes get involved.
But, then again, I think this puts us a bit ahead of schedule for the post-nuclear horror, right? Too bad we couldn't get Irish re-unification first.
How about if we just act in the oligarchy's best interests? I bet a war between India and Pakistan would increase weapons sales and they might even want Starlink! Good for everyone who matters!

The times when the US was in a position to act as neutral-ish arbitrator are long gone.
Yeah, I know. I'd still like to see it because I want to believe that we can have nice things.
"We can't pick a side, they both look kinda brown"
Meanwhile, Marco Rubio is intervening….
This is fine. Don't get into more conflicts. But if you want to be isolationist, then pull out everywhere. Pull put of all foreign bases.
JD is such a Trump cock sucker man. Can't wait till his political life is over.
Neither of them have anything Trump wants so he won't intervene.
As good as admitting that the US is no longer a superpower. You can't be isolationist and a superpower at the same time.
Back in my yoof we traded nuclear technology for mangos with India and those mangos were sweet, I tell ya what
translation: "lol. like anyone's gonna listen to us anymore."
I mean fair enough tbh; it is none of America's business as long as nukes don't fly.
Nothing good to extract, too many people to occupy farmland, the Brits already took all the good stuff and the water tends to be shit. Not worth recolonizing. There is always cheap labor I suppose. Must not be enough draw.
Trump says if there's anything he can do to help end the conflict to let him know.
Vance says they are staying out of it.
Makes you wonder if most of his administration just ignores what he says and sticks to Project 2025 until they are forced to listen to him to keep the public eye from noticing to much.
….uh huh
