So, you are saying that an alliance designed to keep the imperialistic Russians at bay is obsolete? Good job standing by your convictions in the face of the evidence.

When long term hard core neutrals like the Swedes and Finns start thinking it is a good idea, it might be a good time to reevaluate that premise.

Sorry, I don’t support the corporate globalists and their shifting of US wealth around the rest of the world at the expense of our citizens. I believe we should be a sovereign nation.

You have it backwards

Since it's inception, NATO has expanded from 12 member states to 30, with the Ukraine, Finland and Sweden looking for membership. NATO has waved a matador's red cape in front of Putin for years.

No war for Elites.

NATO was organized to contain the Soviet Union and to make sure Germany remained divided and the US military remained in Europe. The Soviet Union does not exist, the existential to the US is gone, Germany has reunited with the enthusiastic approval of the US. Russia is a normal nation perseuing it’s interests in a normal manner. If it is rough in handling border disputes why should American care. In general why should Americans care what occurs in Europe. The end of the peculiarity dangerous Soviet regime which doctrinally was dedicated to the destruction of all other national regimes marked the end of the need for US continued presence in Europe or in NATO
