Should the USA leave NATO?

Under the current economic conditions, the USA will never leave NATO, nor many of the other bases around the world. Gold backed dollar?

No, the USA has a military backed dollar.

This, in combination with control of the oil through it being traded largely in USD and our stimulus supplied stock market, makes the dollar the safe haven. Giving the USA banking control over the world.

Take away any one of those factors and of course acts of God and it would be a completely different world.

Don't forget that the US is founded on European principals and by citizens from various countries around Europe.

Cancel that,
I spoke to the Boss
We want MONEY.

Please
Half the Tards here only know Five Guys, not Five Eyes and have no idea how to connect >>> .........

Hey Tards, did you know that FIVE GUYS was Bammy the Mooslim in cheefs favorite burger ;0 place?

Out of NATO and pull the plug on that farce Kosovo with it.

From the linked article; "The total is not the result of deep research in archives across the country. Rather, it is an extrapolation. Gebhardt makes the assumption that 5 percent of the "war children" born to unmarried women in West Germany and West Berlin by the mid-1950s were the product of rape."

"Another estimate, stemming from US criminology professor Robert Lilly, who examined rape cases prosecuted by American military courts, arrived at a number of 11,000 serious sexual assaults committed by November, 1945 -- a disgusting number in its own right."

It's a rough extrapolation based on her assumptions. *eyeroll*
Besides, does a German feminist historian really want to get into a "war crimes" pissing contest?

Yes, we provide NATO with everything from weapons to funding, total ripoff for us. Time for the rest of the world to deal with their own bullshit without me having to pay the bill.

Interesting question, and begs the question as to whether NATO is obsolete, as argued in an article in The National Interest a few days ago:

[link to nationalinterest.org]

Clearly, the original purpose of NATO is not as pressing as it once was with the fall of the Warsaw Pact/Soviet Union. Is Russia not a threat at all? Does the US have no interests at all that are protected by NATO?

I have a question; why did candidate Trump say NATO is obsolete and President Trump say NATO “is no longer obsolete”? This and other articles say that President Trump admitted he did not know much about NATO when he first called it “obsolete” when he was candidate Trump.

[link to thehill.com]

I don’t know if that is true, but something changed Trump’s mind, and it is important that we understand that before jumping to conclusions one way or the other about the US leaving NATO or it being obsolete, and specifically if it serves no interest critical to the US? I know I was not happy about other NATO members actions after the US invoked Article 5 after 9/11. Other NATO countries did not do their fair share for “collective defense”, but if the worst happens in Europe the US must be “all in”? Collective defense, one of the bedrock principles of NATO, cuts all ways.

There is absolutely no issue about the NATO members not paying their fair share; it is not even close. Why in 2014 each NATO member had a decade to get to the 2% spending level is beyond me; it should be happening now, and other countries need to step up to the plate both in spending and having military equipment battle ready, in addition to true “collective defense”.

As I said this is an interesting question, and I would love to hear why Trump changed his mind.

Of course not. Should save that for the Vietnam War posts and Gulf wars posts.

US should get the EU together and attack Russia, then pull out of NATO.

Russkies did most of the rapin. UK almost none. Among GIs, it was mainly blacks who did that shit.

Trump is surrounded by people who are pro NATO and they influence him, to some degree. That stupid bombing of of Syria is an example of his being influenced. Ultimately, he seems to revert back to his own ideas, though, and I think that accounts for his NATO stance, now, and Europe being worried the US will pull out.

NATO is nothing but a tool of aggression of the globalists. It needs to go.

Hmm, I wasn't aware that the US saved Germany.

Translation:

US should carry out the Jewish Trotskyite agenda and attack Russia because Jevvs are still mad about the Czars.

It's easy to sit on the sidelines and judge others play when you know you won't be called upon to get in the game with your 20k strong active forces. (Including 4K+ civilians)

Lol with who? Thanks for the laugh

Maybe it's time America stay on their own

Dump NATO in a second.

Russian and Eu can link up

I'm getting tired of arrogant yanks
