i only have one post in the thread and russia isn't mentioned in it. why are you making up narratives?
Don't start back peddling now, you know exactly what you said.
Every current U.S. actions runs completely counter to your continued implications. Given the U.S. presence in your Europe it would be wholly impossible to conduct war against NATO member countries and not attack U.S. military facilities and personnel. To attempt to do so would essentially admitting you've lost before you've even started. It's about time NATO member countries get put on notice that they have to carry more of the weight, it's long over due.
Of course, what you'll never discuss is that the United States and NATO have completely under cut the original intent of NATO by engaging in unilateral war against sovereign nations that posed no security threat whatsoever to NATO and its member countries. Completely violating the NATO charter.
