Remember when Def. Sec'y Rumsfeld used this exact language and was excoriated in the press for it?

Now look.

“We will stay to accomplish the goals that we can not yet agree upon, much less agree as to how to actually accomplish them.”

Spoken like a true EU/UN bureaucrat.

PERFECT!

Now the US:

-Largest payer into NATO (~27.5% by ourselves and all other 28 nations contribute the other 72.5% combined).

-Flipping the majority of the bill for this mission.

-Having initiated combat and conducted the high threat missions early on when air defenses are still functional.

-Will under the guise of NATO continue to conduct missions.

However, Obama will not personally be connected to anything bad that happens there since he added a layer of insulation between himself and this intervention, the supra national institution, NATO.

How European of him!

This is America's first experience with a Euro style politician.

It will last until Russia or China puts a stop to it.

The Europeans dislike the idea of anything that requires them to do anything or costs them money. They like the status quo with NATO which they call and use on demand but only contribute to when they feel like it and then only in ways they like.

Rumsfeld was 100% right, but the Euro’s didn't want that. The idiot media in the US was more worried about going after him than the actual story, a NATO system that isn't working right (Even before Iraq Rumsfeld was pushing this). Today no one will see things like this as “vindication” of his arguments. Most Americans will have moved on and will know who won Dancing with the Stars the last time around..........

Yes. My thoughts exactly: isn’t this like mirror, mirror on the wall . . .?

Everything they criticized the U.S. for, they are now finding out the realities of.
