Except that with the collapse of the U.S.S.R., we have little national interests in staying in NATO at all. And BTW, Greece strongly opposed KFOR.
Greece has had soldiers in KFOR for years; they are currently in the American sector. And regardless of Greek public opinion, the government of Greece agreed to the bombing of Serbia in 1999. NATO requires consensus to operate.
.....bears repeating!
NATO is nothing more than a military tool of those evil forces attempting to impose an unelected and faceless world government upon all the nations of the world, and it will, IMO, supplant what is now the United Nations with its own army of bureaucrats.
Kosovo is now UN property.
The first geographic land mass completely under UN control. Provided, of course, we don't take into account the world's national parks and historical landmarks deeded over to the UN - so that it can of worms can use the real estate to float their loans to pay for its own excesses.
Check out the signs as you enter America's - scratch that - the UN's parks and historical sites in the United States.
The United States - a bastion of national sovereignty!!! Not any more!!! This land is our land - only in title.
The thing about debtors is they don't call the shots. Worst yet, a debtor nation is subject to the push/pull of its creditors. This is the primary reason Congress finds itself in a financial straight-jacket - the actual reason they just raised the debt level another 800 billion dollars. Otherwise, the money spigot would have run dry, and we'd be in a can of worms that would make the Great Depression look like a one day bank holiday.
Want a heart attack? Ask the US Treasury who is holding IOU's, and what percentage of the annual tax collection is paid on just the interest of our total debt. I triple dare you!!!! How much is paid on the actual debt? That's a ZERO, a big fat GOOSE EGG.
We, our Congress and our administrative branch, have put a financial ball and chain on generations of unborn Americans who escape the abortion mill.
Every inch of federal land, and every American asset is in hock. American government functions only because of the flow of foreign capital supplying our national, state and local budgets.
America wouldn't have enough cash to fuel up Air Force One if it weren't for the Saudi's, the Chinese, the Japanese, the English, the Dutch and German money lenders.....among others.
This is, IMO, the REAL reason for our big push to secure a single western hemispheric government - to get it done while we still have some leverage. If that takes place, I wouldn't doubt that we will lock up and hock every natural resource and government held land within every country to the north and south of us.
Yes, they participated, which was strange because they were strongly against it until the last minute.
No offense, but didn't the same guy refer to Greeks as Grecians?
