I love Germany. But, to Hell with the BS.
Move the bases to Poland.
Poland is a dogged ally in the truest sense.
If you notice the wording here....’is willing’ doesn’t really mean much of anything.
With BREXIT coming, pension woes, welfare reform on the horizon, etc....I don’t see where the extra tax revenue will come from.
This was just idle chatter by the Defense Minister...nothing more than that. Reuters simply took the bait and built an entire article around it.
Cue the climate and UN freaks of Germany saying we should do more and they cannot even par up on NATO.
Screw this bull sht.
What are US troops doing in Germany ?
How about we just say that we’ll contribute the average? Why should we foot the lion’s share of the bill? It isn’t our borders. We can have actual alliances with those that are serious, like Poland.
Agreed. The US should withdraw from NATO. We can strike bilateral defense treaties with real allies like the UK and Poland. It makes no sense for us to subsidize the national defense of a bunch of freeloading leeches in Europe who we know we cannot count on.
