America and American taxpayers have carried that NATO dog as far back as I can remember...and to what purpose? It's time for the US to release NATO into the wild and let it survive (or not) on its own.
Don't you remember all of those times the Europeans came to our rescue... Sorry, I forgot that only goes one way.
I bet they'd stop trying to pick a fight with everyone if we weren't there to protect them.
They're not allies anyway. They screw us every chance they get and then talk shit about us.
The last time any European came to our aid was the French General Lafayette in the Revolutionary War.
Correct.
AND The UN.
100%. We can use the building as a deportation center.
NATO was started by the USA to combat the Soviet Union, they got most western nations to join it. When the Soviet Union collapsed that made NATO redundant as their main opponent was no more, the logical thing to do was to dissolve NATO.
But no, the USA would not have that and continued funding and arming NATO, presumably for reasons of leverage over Europe, so it expanded eastwards. When Russia asked to join NATO they said no and the eastwards expansion continued
And now the USA wants to get rid of NATO and blame Europe for costing them far too much.
