Awesome. That’s a bright idea. Lets let Europe decide when America is REQUIRED to go to war. We live at the mercy of their whims.

Awesome. That’s a bright idea. Lets let Europe decide when America is REQUIRED to go to war. We live at the mercy of their whims. We are signatories to the NATO agreement. We have treaty obligations and these have been in effect for 65 years. An attack against one member is an attack against all. Why would our commitment change now when it has been honored for 65 years. NATO has implemented Article 5 only one time since its inception, i.e., in response to the 9/11 attack against us. NATO involvement in Afghanistan is the result.

That’s a bright idea. It mostly kept the peace for 65 years, in a region not exactly noted for such.
