>Thinking Turkey is an ally

What?

>Thinking the Kurds aren't a useful asset in the Middle East

What?

Technically, they're still in NATO

Not for long as their goals / aims and NATOs (Americas) differ

Yeah sure tell that to all the european nations who arent paying 2% GDP for military

NATO became obsolete the instant the soviet union died

from then on its done nothing but be as provocative and ill-mannered as it possibly could

continually stepping over every line they promised they wouldn't cross

figuratively and geographically

just poking and prodding a no-longer-expansionist Russia more and more and more

NATO doesn't want to be a deterrent power, they want to be a fucking angel of vengeance

fuck em

@SilentSkies You do realise Europe has enough assets to protect itself right?

heh heh heh.. <:sarGOY:462286263622303754>

NATO is just the US. The US should divorce itself from the UN so that it can take unilateral military action if need be. Gunboat Diplomacy 2: nuclear jiggaboo

The US kinda does that already

We haven't signed any binding agreements as far as I am aware

The US didn't even sign at Geneva

We need to continue that trend. Backing out of the Climate Accords was a good step in the right direction

But climate change

@Nathan James 123 assets don't matter. It's about keeping promises.

Oh, because NATO's in a position to bitch about promises, now?

to us or anyone else

I wasn't kidding about their border encroachments

they have our hardware in the fucking Black Sea for fucks sake

America is shit at keeping its promises, kek @SilentSkies

>Kurds

>Ukraine

>Made an agreement to help them fight ISIS. ISIS is gone now. Promise kept.
>Obama era policy

Not only did you fuck them over and throw them to Turkey

You made it EVEN EASIER for Turkey to attack them

I'm glad the USA is losing support and influence around the world.
