Time to call ‘em as they are. NATO is now an aggressive expansionist alliance that bombed Belgrade to help Kosovo moslems, and attacked Libya and installed black flag waving Al Qeida. They almost attacked Syria, and instead had to settle for a secret war there.
And they are expanding as quickly as they can eastwards towards Moscow.
NATO ensures that America can be required to go to war to cover the ass of any wacky European or Turk who gets in over their head.
I heard it invoked joyfully here when that Turk jet was shot down flying over Syrian airspace.
NATO only makes sense if America gets final say over all foreign affairs of the other member countries. Otherwise, they can make decisions that drag us into a war we might not really want.
The only time Article 5 of the NATO treaty was invoked was after 9/11. The NATO countries agreed to go into Afghanistan because the US was attacked.
NATO kept Europe free from Soviet invasion and encroachment after WWII. Our policy of containment led to the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Bingo!
