August1991 Posted August 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) You Americans can send young guys to die abroad. You proved that in Vietnam. You won the Cold War and the Soviet Union is no more. ===== But now, Trump is correct. There is no reason for any American soldier to die abroad.

Contrary to what Donald the Populist says here are the benefits of the US being part of the alliance: NATO supports and protects the economies of Europe, which are critical to the health of the US economy. US trade with the European Union reached $699 billion in 2015, only made possible because of the security and stability provided by NATO. US exports to the former Communist NATO member states (not including East Germany) grew from $0.9 billion in 1989 to $9.4 billion in 2016. Non-US NATO members rely heavily on the US defense industry to supply their forces. Currently, European members are planning to purchase as many as 500 new F-35s from the United States.

herbie Posted August 12, 2022 Report Share Posted August 12, 2022 Well we can increase our spending by buying $1000 hammers and $5000 toilet seats like they do.

NATO has more money, and is a stronger alliance today because of Don Trump. Jens Stoltenberg admits this. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2019/01/27/nato-chief-credits-trump/2695799002/ Now the political preppy boys, whom are favoured by the public for their celeb status, charming looks and official-sounding manners (“Il fascismo”) have something useful to work with, in the face of the assault by the ruthless neo-bolshevieken. The same limp-dicks, who gave nothin before. All thanks to Trump... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to disagree in principle about the greatness of America, but let’s not forget that the Soviets were the first to reach Berlin. And in space, Yuri Gagarin was the first to go and claim he did not see the face of god. Furthermore “The loudest bang has not yet been heard.” (Purported Stalin quote) In other words, it’s not time for champagne just yet. There is another axis.

Heck, Biden withdrew from Afghanistan. You had me until this. Obama reigned fire from the skies like none before him, with drones. Except, oddly enough, when any aid would have saved the life of an American ambassador in Benghazi. Biden has sent close to 100 billion to Ukraine, weapons of all kinds including illegal fire and forget drones that seek out Russian tanks, for instance. And the withdrawal of Afghanistan left 87 billion in military arms that they could use or sell at their leisure, thus arming them too. But yeah, Trump made a point of not getting involved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

athos Posted August 15, 2022 Report Share Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) Religion is a personal choice. I think it is wrong to identify religion with racial, cultural and national identity. There is no correlation between genetic predisposition and religious affiliation. ? Edited August 15, 2022 by athos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
