[Bruce Campbells Chin]

NATO has been in existence for more than 70 years, and we have yet to have been dragged into a single war because of it. Not one. In fact, the only time Article 5 was ever invoked was after we were attacked on 9/11.

And before someone mentions Bosnia, exactly zero Americans were killed there.

[Reily]

There were US casualties.

Bosnian War 1992–1995
Combat death 1
Other (accidents,etc) 11
Total 12

We were lucky it wasn’t more!

We had no business bombing anybody in the Bosnian issue. It was done for Clinton domestic politics then for anything else.

If it was that important to Europe, then it should have been a total European affair. A revamped NATO along the lines I suggested would have made it that way.
“Damn fool things in the Balkans” are not our concerns !
