To keep Britain/France and Germany from destroying each other every few decades.

I think we're at the point now where if May, Merkel, and Macron went after each other, Trump would sit back and pop popcorn. So why not just make it official. Since the President hates the idea of spending all that money defending Europe then bring the troops home, disband the units, discharge the soldiers, and watch the cost savings roll in.

Russia is an Asian satrapy, an oriental despotism, and never in its history has it joined the European community of nations.

“NATO is simply a mechanism for the U.S. to maintain a permanent military presence in Europe. It’s not there to defend against anything.”

Well, if that’s true, why is Trump trying to “wreck” it? Furthermore, why would we want to do that? Personally, I thing it’s simply political hardening of the arteries that prevents us, until now, from taking an objective look at the mission of NATO and it’s cost to us.

[The Europhile’s logic is queer: Europeans make NATO get stronger by being reluctant to afford more spending.]

EUROPE is no longer EUROPIAN. The continent has been overrun by MUSLIMS, who are gaining political power by their sheer numbers - a threat to Western Civilization. Is present-day EUROPE friend or foe?
