    Tired yes but the current structure of NATO has it where if the US got the boot the Institution would than collapse and have to be rebuilt from the ground up.

    On the Greenland situation while Trump was pissed the more Imperialist Faction of the administration (the political figures that like to keep the Western Institutions that the US built) rather like Europe making use of their own military to defend their respective sphere (which included Green Land for obvious reasons) as doing so means the US has more assets to bomb Iran and such.

      Yes which is why in reality NATO has already collapsed, it’s just not been dissolved yet.
      But we can’t trust USA to lead NATO anymore. Are you aware that if a NATO operation were to happen in the middle east, USA would have control of the British nukes?
      Obviously we can’t allow that.

      as doing so means the US has more assets to bomb Iran and such.

      That is pure fantasy, USA has not redirected anything from the arctic or Greenland to be used against Iran.

        Erm that’s not how that works. The US as the leader nation doesn’t give them control over Eroupe’s military.

        Really? The US didn’t move assets away from Greenland after the Eroupean powers increased and establish a deal was reached to have the US back off on it’s annexation threat?
