  1. Yes and Austria kept its autonomy until Hitler invaded it.
  2. Czechoslovakia and Austria were parts of the former Austro Hungarian Empire, not Germany. They were never part of Germany.
  3. Why would you believe real people who use their own names and can be held accountable for what they report.
  4. Unbelievable, your ignorance of history is just stunning.
  5. Yes, they did bomb extensively, kind of like Russia is doing to Ukraine but they never crossed the border, unlike what Russia has done in Ukraine. The North invaded the South, not the other way around.
  6. The strategy being used by Putin in Ukraine is identical to that used by Hitler in the Anschluss, Sudetenland, Czechoslovakia and Poland. You have the Nazi label pinned on the wrong shirt.
  7. The US never sent troops into North Vietnam.
  8. So much winning
  9. Why would the US go to war with Iran, to protect the Imams from the protesters? ?
  10. If no one is watching it, why are you so obsessed with it.
  11. Blah blah blah. I hardly ever watch CNN. You don't watch anything but FOX so you would have no clue what others are reporting.
  12. Who's telling you what you believe?
  13. The whole idea of defensive alliances is to never have to use them. Strength is a deterrent. NATO has existed for 73 years. It works.
  14. https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/cheap-lethal-turkish-drones-bolster-ukraines-defenses-83498682
  15. Wow, you really do live in a rabbit hole. Russias invasion has made two formerly neutral countries join NATO. Both have very capable militaries.
  16. How did the US hang NATO out to dry on Afghanistan? US troops were the last to leave. Ours left eight years ago.
  17. How would it be reduced? Turkey sees Russia as a bigger threat than Greece. Geopolitical forces have shifted drastically, away from Russia. Turkish supplied drones are playing a big part in Ukraine’s success.
  18. Possibly we will see and it will depend a lot on what Russia does. They were and removed them as part of the deal. I repeat, there are no nukes, US or otherwise based in Eastern Europe NATO countries. Yes, Cuba is closer, but it was the only option in that hemisphere. Look it up, rather than making shit up It is precisely why they joined, they have said so. Sweden and Finland didn't apply to join for shits and giggles.
  19. Other than 7000 in the NATO rotating force which might be anywhere, the US has no troops in Eastern Europe.
  20. So why is Russia behaving like old time Nazis?
  21. Not a police state. Ya, right. If the Convoy crowd had done their thing in front of the Kremlin, they would have been cleared out in a day and disappeared.
  22. Turkey and Greece are often butting heads. It is nothing new. BTW, NATO is not getting reduced, it is gaining members and getting stronger. It hasn't been this united since the Cold War.
