It may be time to reconsider NATO, in that it is well past time for the Europeans to fully take on the expense to defend and protect themselves. The economies of the EU states are strong enough in their own right to be able to afford the costs. We can spend the savings on missile defense and rapid force projection, and let the surrender monkeys take care of themselves. The US no longer needs to subsidize a basic responsibility of nation-states.

I'll second that..

To bad this wasn't decided before we got sucked into the Balkans quagmire..

That was a bondoggle that didn't even concern NATO....

Looks like we may lose bothe NATO and the U.N.

With the cost savings we maybe can improve our defenses..and save our soverniegty....

NATO was formed as a bulwark against the Soviet Union. The threat picture is much different now, and Germany is singularly unworthy of any protection - as are the perverts of Belgium.

Build a new alliance of countries willing to stand for Western values, not Islamism or "Old European" fascism.

Who knows, maybe the Euro-weenies will feel the defense budget pinch and actually allocate some money away from their cradle-to-grave Socialist systems. It's time we stopped subsidizing Socialism in the EU.
