The facts don't support what he sez. 1. The U.S, The Russians and the British Empire's military destroyed the military of Germany and Italy to the point of unconditional surrender. The spoils of war were divided up between the three. Then the useless europeans needed a body guard. Guess who? To say that anyone except the United States of America is Nato is a lie. The United States has lived up to and beyond every aspect of NATO. One of the main factors in the Vietnam war was to fight the USSR and show them that we would go to any lenght to keep them in their place. This country is broke and can not spend any more hard earned taxpayer dollars on being the unpaid body guard for the slow learners in europe. Kill NATO before it kills us.Conrad vonBlankenburghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05021156999127533516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9004611408106715980.post-43854920931472060872012-05-18T11:41:14.037-04:002012-05-18T11:41:14.037-04:00I live in Chicago.
