NATO is done. Turns out we never needed them. And they shrugged their backs at us on EPIC FURY. Would of loved to hear Trump giving each of them the public humiliation they all need.

Will they call off the annual Muslim celebration:
The birth of Prophet Muhammad is celebrated as Mawlid al-Nabi or Eid Milad-un-Nabi on the 12th day of Rabi’ al-Awwal, the third month of the Islamic lunar calendar. It is a time for reflection, reciting poetry, and community gatherings, often marked by lights and feasts.

The annual NATO summit is a annual circle jerk. Just like Davos and the G7 or G8 whatever it is now.
