NATO must face the fact it is obsolete - reason for existence ended with the demise of the Cold War - Column

For nearly 50 years, NATO was a success in its stated mission, a remarkable achievement in the annals of alliances. Ironically, it has become the major victim of its most singular triumph -- stopping international communist aggression, a threat that no longer exists. Today, NATO appears to be in a state of confusion, a victor with no parades and testimonials, a behemoth without a purpose.

As might be expected, however, NATO has no desire to die. There's a little bit of Alice in Wonderland at work here -- the Cheshire cat is gone but its smile remains.

NATO has become an entrenched and far-flung bureaucracy with large chunks of valuable property in terms of bases, depots, military installations, ammunition and weapons stores. It is filled with talented personnel, including some of the top security, intelligence and military minds in Europe. Not unlike the U.S. military, the alliance is trying to find a new direction and identity for itself.

... a useless relic ...
... that has betrayed its role of "defensive only" treaty ...
... and ended up becoming occupations instrument ...
... in the hands of the amerikkkan new world order ...
... of wall street bankkkers ...
... petroleum godly interest ...

... the military alliance ...
... should be dismantled ...
... before it may cause a thirld world war "by mistake" ...
... russia should be accepted as member ...
... and nato should remain just an economic alliance ...
