A total farce. NATO is not a defense pact. It’s a massive bureaucracy that provides massive employment to large numbers of Eurocrats. Now it is an expansionist force invading it’s neighbors to expand the political and economic goals of the EU.
And the Article 5 invocation after 9/11? A very strong case can be made that Russia gave us more assistance than ANY Nato “ally”.
For extra fun, I would like a reason why Americans should spend blood and treasure to defend Europe from anything these days. They are diametrically opposed to everything America stands for. They hate free speech, republican government, guns, individual freedom, voting, free enterprise...you name it.
Ditto. Particularly the UK, which has devolved into an Orwellian dystopia that persecutes dissidents and has now confined a whistleblower to a mental hospital, with no access to lawyers.
A millitary alliance with these (and it includes Turkey) makes as much sense as a military alliance with East Germany.
