“US President Donald Trump bashed NATO and appeared to renew his threats over Greenland after a closed-door meeting with alliance chief Mark Rutte, during which he was expected to discuss possibly leaving the pivotal security bloc. "NATO WASN'T THERE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM, AND THEY WON'T BE THERE IF WE NEED THEM AGAIN," he posted on Truth Social. "REMEMBER GREENLAND, THAT BIG, POORLY RUN, PIECE OF ICE!!!" he added, without any further explanation.”

Not being able to use our NATO bases for Iran demonstrates why mere permissions from Greenland isn’t enough, we need to own it to make sure our military capabilities there in the future are not restricted.
I agree. I think Trump administration aims to own it whether Denmark likes it or not. They sent 30 soldiers! LOL!
The EU has a very good chance of taking Orban out. They have a Manchurian candidate who is running as a conservative closed border guy. He is Soros funded and ahead in some polls.
America proudly went into this war saying it didn’t need any help, and rejected UK’s proposal to send 2 aircraft carriers!
Then… when the war didn’t turn the way the White House had hoped for, after 2 weeks, it suddenly started to ask for help… after REFUSING and MOCKING the UK’s help proposal. No wonder no allies want to join the war after being mocked and insulted and totally ignored during pre-war preparations.
France sent its nuclear aircraft carrier group anyways and has been pro-active in protecting its allies - shooting down Iranian missiles and drones like crazy in the region.
The Parties to this Treaty reaffirm their faith in the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and their desire to live in peace with all peoples and all governments.Seems like this is another postwar endeavor doomed to failure.
They are determined to safeguard the freedom, common heritage and civilization of their peoples, founded on the principles of democracy, individual liberty and the rule of law. They seek to promote stability and well-being in the North Atlantic area.
They are resolved to unite their efforts for collective defense and for the preservation of peace and security. They therefore agree to this North Atlantic Treaty.
They WAITED TOO LONG as usual when it made no difference whether they were there or not and told us we couldn’t use their bases for our planes. They SUCK.
If he is going to annex something, he should annex Diego Garcia.
Why did America refuse UK’s two aircraft carriers saying “they were not needed”… while America now sudden wants them…
America needs to make up its mind. Saying yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, etc… does not encourage allies to participate.
Beyond US and Israel, only France is helping - based on their own agenda - as they have signed defense contacts with many Arab states in the region.

Did you ever think that was the media telling you all these things?

He’s European or an American that’s Eurocentric, either way he’s not MAGA.
Just a foreigner looking out for his foreign interests.
NATO is d#$%less and long past its shelf life.
Soros is one if the roots of all evil, along with Singham and the CCP, Obummer’s US demoncrats….and other assorted shadow creatures. If it’s a fair election, Orban will win.
« They WAITED TOO LONG »
>>>>>>>>>>
It took three years for America to join WWII, even though Churchill relentlessly asked for US help. The UK fought the Nazis all by itself for years.
America finally joined… but only after Hitler declared war against America.
Hitler succeeded bringing America into the war where Churchill failed…
Interesting historical anecdote…
FALSE.
NATO Article 5 — the collective defense clause stating an attack on one member is an attack on all — has been invoked only once in the organization's history.
It was activated on September 12, 2001, in response to the September 11 terrorist attacks against the United States.
Our allies responded.
“NATO is d#$%less and long past its shelf life.”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The idea that NATO is purely about collective defense MASSIVELY overlooks its economic and geopolitical dimensions. The alliance reinforces U.S. influence over European defense markets, standards, and procurement decisions—to the ABSOLUTE advantage of American industry and the America worker. From that perspective, it’s reasonable to see NATO as serving U.S. interests in a much stronger way than we can possibly imagine. That’s why Trump will never leave NATO / because it’s good for business.
This is a bullet we seem to try to get infront of and not dodge.
Say thanks to NATO its past history with the US and its contributions to Europe and quietly slip out the kitchen door locking it behind us.
What you say is so wrong it does not even merit argument.
