NATO's 2% goal

[Speaker to Animals]

If that's the case, dissolve it.

[Smitty-48]

I'm not the one propping NATO up.

The only alliance that matters to the British Crown, is the United Kingdom - United States Security Agreement.

UKUSSA Five Eyes and associated Joint Strategic Deterrent, otherwise known as the Anglosphere.

[Speaker to Animals]

I would prefer just an Anglo alliance.

Which is pretty much the de facto case no matter what. Anybody who attacks an Anglo nation right now is going to get stomped hard. And you don't need some fancy treaty and bureaucracy for that. Everybody already knows it.

In actual fact, I'm not really even "Canadian", Canada is a Domestic Self Governing Federation of the now defunct British Empire.

Canada is not capable nor even willing to defend me, defend my property, defend my rights, so my real Westphalian Nation State by any Westphalian measure, is UKUSSA.

Currently trying to protect me from the Chinese Communists and Justin Trudeau, by taking Meng Wanzhou as a hostage.

All my Westphalian rights and prerogatives flow from the British Crown at Buckingham Palace, "Canada" is rather sub national to that.

We Hants County Smiths have been British North American since 1757, Canadian Confederation is just an agreement which was never constructed to be a country fully independent of Britain.

Or as you Yanks like to say "Fake Country"

It's really just an accident of history that Canada even exists, 30,000 American troops should have been able to overrun 3,000 British militia at Queenston Heights, but the Grand River Mohawks came to the rescue, and to avoid being taken by them, the Americans fled the field.

God save the Queen and her Mohawk Warriors.

I guess my problem with NATO is that, if for some reason Russia decided to go to the brink with the USA, and war was immanent, my impression of Eurofags is that almost none of the continentals would back us up. They'd balk and try to capitulate to Ivan.

So what really is the point?

The ones that will fight are all nations like Poland that will get run over anyway.

Germany can't fight jihadis inside their own nation.

France is a mess and hates us more than the Russians anyway.

All the rest of those little countries don't even have a meaningful armed forces.


What the fuck are we even paying for??

[Montegriffo]

France hates us more than the Russians anyway.

Where did you get that from?
Clearly nonsense.

Clearly nonsense.

My experiences serving with French units.

How many deployments have you been on with the French military?

How many deployments have you been on with the French military?

Probably more than you. Monte followed the French army around as a "military comfort woman."

Those French guys do like their women big and hairy.

Poland going to get run over? It's not 1939 dude, they can hold their own, fiesty motherfuckers, those Polocks. If Russia tries to take Poland this time, it's in for a rude awakening.
