“The British people and Parliament were never asked their opinion (or consent) about going to war; they were just told that they were in it.“

But why would the British people have a role in such a decision? That’s not their system.

[Alas Babylon!]

Wait a minute.

I’d give a pass to former eastern block nations.

They know what it’s like to be under Russian domination. If they don’t want that, they have every right to seek out the arms and alliances to prevent that.

I agree that if NATO or the EU promised Russia they wouldn’t move the Eastern nations under their umbrella... They shouldn’t.

However, national sovereignty allows a nation, even ones who formally belong to the Warsaw Pact, to decide their own foreign policy. They might get bit by the bear if they poke, but they do not owe him perpetual ass kissing.
