The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is supposed to be a mutual defense treaty.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Oh I imagine the Brits will rue the day they left Iraq, believeing in Pelosi rather than Bush. Gordon Brown thought America would lose in Iraq. He was wrong.

And now the Brits will ned the US to help them protect their interests in the Carribean and in the SOuth Atlantic.

Not much chance of that now. Gordon Brown is a strategic , short sighted idiot.

Mr. Brown will rue the day he pulled British forces out of Iraq.

Ref.:

In a new outburst of antiwestern sabre-rattling, President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela has threatened Britain with “revenge” for the Falklands war of 1982. The belligerent Latin American leftist warned last week that his recent build-up of sophisticated Russian and Iranian weapons would be used to destroy the British fleet if it attempted to return to the South Atlantic.

Speaking on his weekly television show Alo Presidente (Hello, Mr President), Chavez denounced what he described as Britain’s “illegal occupation” of the Falklands and repeated his call for a regional military alliance against Britain and the United States.

“If we had been united in the last war, we could have stopped the old empire,” Chavez said, as he gesticulated to maps showing how Venezuelan aircraft and submarines would intercept British warships. “Today we could sink the British fleet.”
