NATO was established to be a hedge against war of Russian expansionism from Eastern Eurpose by creating a strong and ready defense in Western Europe.

Now we are fighting a proxy war started over NATO expansionism from Western Europe into Eastern Europe right to the borders of Russia . Seems someone forgot the real mission.

NATO was established to give the U.S. an excuse to maintain a permanent military occupation of Western Europe after two devastating wars. It had little, if anything, to do with actually defending Europe against the Soviets. One strong piece of evidence for this is that the Warsaw Pact was created in 1955 after the Soviet Union had its request to join NATO rejected.

The strongest evidence for this is that NATO even exists at all in 2023.

The Russians would have taken the Baltics if they weren't in NATO already.

Truman was wrong. FBI was a Gestapo when Himmler was still a chicken farmer.
