Why don't you google the very first time help from NATO was invoked by a country.

@sonhouse saidThe USSR does not exist anymore. Why do you want to reveal who we will protect and who we will not? Are we seeking protection money? Now Russia knows who they can invade with impunity. Is that the goal?

@sonhouse saidSo NATO was used to get other NATO nations to fight a terrorist group with no nation so they could invade the nation they happened to be in? BTW, Afghanistan said they would hand over Bin Laden if the US could show proof Bin Laden and Al Qaeda committed the crime. They could not prove it. The FBI never charged Bin Laden or anyone else with the 911 terrorist attack before they invaded Afghanistan.

So you didn't google the first time NATO was invoked.
For all you idiots out there, that was 9-11-2001. You may have heard of THAT date at least?
That is the first and so far ONLY time NATO treaty was invoked.
@sonhouse saidWhy do you think NATO is important?
@Metal-Brain
So being the card carrying contrarian, you are WAY ok with Trump killing NATO. Got it. Go it alone. Sure, we have 40,000 TANKS, that will do it. We are STRONG.
Tell me, can you guess who will be dancing in the streets if Trump pulls out of NATO?
Nope, not Macron. Nope, not Trudeau. Nope, not Merkel. Hint, the name begins with P. Well T also.
@sonhouse saidWonder why Obama let him take crimea?
@Metal-Brain
Why do you think it ISN'T? Do you think for instance, now that the Soviet Union is gone, Russia is no threat? I guess you figure its just boys will be boys when Putin attacked Ukraine and took over Crimea. No big deal, those 13,000 dead Ukranians had it coming.....
@sonhouse saidIf they were a NATO nation he would have had to. The Ukraine is not NATO though. Remember what I said about non NATO members being a green light to invade with impunity? Russia knew they didn't have NATO protection, so Putin annexed Crimea. See how that works?
@Mott-The-Hoople
So Obama was supposed to do what, mount a million man army to drive out the Russians, then maybe take over Russia in the bargain? Are you usually this stupid or is it just another message from your Russian handlers?
