    How the fuck did the US, the core of NATO, fail to get other NATO states that are entirely reliant on the US for defence to… Join a “peacekeeping operation”?

    Fuck, they only got Canada to send 3 “officers” for “observation.”

    This is pathetic.

      Because NATO is a defensive pact, not an empire, and can’t just have its troops deployed with the unilateral will of the United States?

        The US has received copious support in their prior offensive military actions. The fact that they’re not receiving much now is telling.
