On a separate note regarding the NATO map that you posted above (#37), I don’t think Turkey will hold NATO’s southern flank much longer. In fact, I don’t believe that Ankara can be counted as a dependable ally even today. Recep Erdogan is taking Turkey in a bad direction, and it appears that a lot of Turks want to go there with him. While this change will have implications in the Black Sea, I am more immediately concerned with its impact in the Middle East.
And that NATO posted map. Post a NATO map from 1991 and then lets see who is on the march. And its sickening to hear an American call themselves a “NATO soldier”.
I hold no allegiance to NATO, and it is not the patriotic duty of an American to support a coup on behalf of the EU, in Ukraine. This is how much the war insanity has taken over our nation.
