STOP! We are sick of protecting Europe with our tax dollars and our military personnel. They do not pay their fair share. Therefore, I say NO MORE! They can protect themselves. We need to shore up our own military.
Exactly right. NATO is just a protection racket where the American citizens pays for all the freeloaders in Europe. It’s long past time for those EuroTrash to pay for THEIR OWN defense!
Why didn’t Sweden and Finland join NATO years ago, in times of peace? They are military welfare leaches.
A key tenet of NATO is Article % - Collective defence - Article 5
An attack on one is considered an attack on all - and all should respond. Since NATO formed in 1949, incredibly this has only been invoked once - and that was to support the US following the 9/11 attacks.
In addition, NATO buys a lot of American weaponry and surplus weaponry, helping the USA keep on the cutting edge of military tech.
