yeah, the entire West and much of the East is a no go zone for me right now

my thinking for my immediate future is to just stick it out on this island, war is not coming here, at least, at worst not likely more than happened in WW2 when some germans shot at portuguese in funchal bay and then the portuguese sunk the german ship and that was that

it's an island covered in farms, and aside from internet connectivity and tourism has nothing strategic, not even as a staging area, azores are better due to flatter landscape

it would be a big mistake to try and attack this island anyway, extremely expensive fuel costs, materiel maintenance (trucks running off cliffs and brakes wearing out etc), there's almost nowhere to land a plane and almost everywhere has an easy to hold higher vantage point where snipers could pick off enemies long before they got in range
