Congress should end the war in Ukraine by withdrawing from NATO
The Hill ^ | 11/25/2022 | BRUCE FEIN

Congress can end the war in Ukraine and win a Nobel Peace Prize by enacting a statute withdrawing the United States from NATO — transforming it from a mighty offensive oak into a tiny acorn unalarming to Russia.

As early as 1798, Congress nullified a defense treaty with France by statute. A congressional end to United States participation in NATO would be no constitutional novelty.

At the very latest, NATO became obsolete in 1991 when its raison d’etre — the Soviet Empire — dissolved. By remaining in NATO and spearheading its expansion to Russia’s borders with 30 members, the United States provoked President Vladimir Putin’s attack on Ukraine. It was poised to join NATO to fortify the encirclement of an already diminished Russia constituting a greater existential threat to it than the existential threat the Cuban missile crisis posed to the United States.

The UN should be given its eviction notice.

Most, if not all, of the countries in it, hate the US anyway. But the UN diplomats sure do love living on their governments dime, in the big city.

I’d be generous and give them 180 days to find someplace in Europe. On day 181, forced evictions and the biggest wrecking ball ever seen.

France doesn’t have any military bases in America right now.

I respond in kind. That’s all Jon’s got. That’s all Jon gets. Don’t like it, take it up with the Russia sympathizer. He’s been doing it to everybody for basically the whole year.

No. When somebody is just a pathetic little bullyboy playing nice with them is a waste of time. I mock them and then walk away. I’m nice to nice people. I don’t waste it on scum.

Did he ever have something else? All I remember is him insisting “it’s over” and telling people to go away. He really wants to be on TV, where he can talk and nobody can talk back.

“NATO became obsolete in 1991,” thanks to Pope John Paul II, Margaret Thatcher and the Mighty Reagan. Nato + UN = useless.

The most recent failure of isolatioism is when bush i told saddam that his dispute with kuwait was of no concern to the us. That gave saddam the green light to invade kuwait. Some will say thats what bush really wanted.well that proves the point!

Oh yes the only other thing he had was his failed predictions. Since he wont own up to them its necessary to remind him. Gets his panties in a twist then he starts with the insults.

Washington isn’t doing anything to disturb the status quo. Imagine for a moment the $billions running through the UN, NATO, World Bank, IMF, US Foreign Aid, etc. Now, imagine the $billions being siphoned off of that river of money by the global “elite”. It’s important to remember that corruption follows money as night follows day. It’s simply human nature, an that never changes.
