I respectfully dissent from the Admiral's assessment. Where was NATO when Putin rolled over Georgia? What did NATO do when things erupted in Crimea?
Does NATO exist in any real sense of the word? Was NATO ever anything other than Europe growing fat under the auspices of Pax Americana?
Under this administration, America has abdicated its responsibilities as a world power. The consequences will not be pretty.
I expect nothing but a lot of talk from NATO. Maybe they'll draw a "red line." But no action.
America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!
O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
