NATO is an Armed Criminal Gang

NATO was originally created to be a Western European military alliance to counter a Soviet invasion of Western Europe. But after the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, NATO’s existence should’ve been ended as well.

But instead of that, it was re-purposed. It became another auxiliary arm of US imperial policy enforcement throughout the world.

It was used illegally to cut up and dismantle Yugoslavia. Then it was used to invade Afghanistan, and unofficially Iraq. It was/is being used in Libya and elsewhere to overthrow governments and support dangerous non-state actors. This is happening despite the fact that these states didn’t attack any NATO members first nor ever would.

NATO today has become a dangerous organization, and more of a liability than a security solution.

NATO is a danger to world security and stability because:


1. It allows the US to exploit NATO members by selling them weapons they neither need nor can afford

2. It drains poorer NATO member states economies of money to pay for increasing military spending while other important domestic considerations remain underfunded. This results in a worse quality of life for those member countries citizens

3. It gives member states a FALSE sense of security by promising them defense against a foreign attack, defense which is guaranteed only on paper, and which may come too late, not come at all, or be ineffective when the hour of war comes

4. It forces member states to be dragged into US-initiated conflicts and wars for US strategic interests against countries that are not a threat to the other NATO member states. This gives the victims of NATO’s aggression a target, which may undermine NATO members’ security

5. It gives some NATO member states a feeling of safety and bravado which makes them more willing to engage in reckless and provocative foreign policies knowing that ‘the US has their back.’ Countries like Turkey, Poland, Romania, and Baltic states are currently the main offenders by engaging in provocations against Russia while hiding under NATO’s skirt


Now NATO is threatening an invasion of Syria. Since Syria has not attacked or invaded a NATO member state, any involvement by NATO in Syria will be a 100% illegal war of aggression. It will also be further proof that NATO is nothing but an armed criminal gang. 


NATO is also being moved closer to Russian border, and trying to setup semi-permanent bases in E. Europe. In this way, it threatens the safety and security of the continent, and uses those Eastern countries as human shields against whatever fictitious enemy the US cooks up.

Add to this the fact that NATO has also become a very profitable weapons-selling racket for US war profiteers.

NATO’s acronym should be changed to

North

American

Terrorist

Organization
