I agree. We should. NATO doctrine and the way it's set up was for the cold war era. What we need to do is pull out and figure out who is on our side, and for the real one's make independent agreements.

What people don't understand is that the shift has already begun, even before Trump took office, but even more so. Assets are being focused from Europe and put places that better serve US interest, such as the Pacific theater which we are. All those WWII/Korea War bases are being reopened.

There's certain posters here who just blast out the dumbest things they can get their hands on.

And this isn't a 4D chess move by Trump. If it was, why can't he now decide to open the Strait without everyone? Since he's not afraid and all.

Lol. Trump closed the Strait! Meanwhile he's crying that no other countries will send ships to open the strait, and just yesterday he said if Iran continues to keep the strait closed he will attack them harder than ever! It's fucking embarrassing

This is all very well and good, but it reminds me of the absolutely embarrassing levels of cope that came out of Ukrainian social media accounts early on in the war. Chit like

As we speak, group masturbation sessions are being organized throughout the suburbs of Kiev. Right as soon as we've all busted a nut, the enemy shall know our wrath.

The Russians have just walked straight into our (jizz-encrusted) trap.

Also basically this. Assuming the USN steams in and opens the straight next week with no complications then all is good. If it turns out that it's more complicated than that then the petrodollar is quite possibly fuarked (because why trade oil in dollars when the US is no longer able to guarantee safe passage anywhere or defend its allies in the middle east), and with that goes a significant proportion of the US hegemony. If it goes one step further and ends up as a ground war then the only person in the US who wins is Jared phucking Kushner.

Also if it 100 percent actually happens then start looking around china for whatever shitty islands are there in the first and second chain that are owned by other nations because China ain't going to be afraid of USless NATO and if it's French or some shit they will just claim it.

Look at the actual size.of.the military of some of these countries they are pathetic and China could run them over in a day.

US will still keep five eyes and Australia especially is too strategic even though their military is pathetically small us wants to build bases there eventy
Sure thing bro China is dying to invade europe. Because a nation built around global trade is going to attack their best costumer... makes total sense

Could you imagine comparing the IQ of Xi Vs Trump? Probably a 60 point difference

Not making a case for or against NATO, just pointing out that being a member of NATO doesn't automatically mean that countries have to join in everyone else's hobby wars.
it seems that the reason is that Iran is crazy, and they were quickly rebuilding nuclear capabilities. They were dangerous to many countries (proven by them randomly attacking all neighboring countries with no logic), they were suspected to be the most likely to use a nuclear weapon should they finally develop one, and that would likely lead to the real WW3. the intent was to stop the risk of WW3 and make an example out of a country who tries to threaten the world with that capability.

we are already 10 guys in a room full of gasoline holding a box of matches, threatening each other, if you light your match, we light ours. we dont need an 11th person with a new box of matches. this was guy #11 making his box of matches, and we are basically slapping him around saying you better not, and showing everyone else in the room that they better not also try to make a box of matches.

Confirmed.

Trump was simply testing them, to prove they are useless "allies".

Trump was right. About everything.
