Why?
I would like to hear opinions to why the necessity for NATO in the 21st Century.
-
to defend europe against a invasion by the evil american empire,we want your oil and women.
-
I know you meant as a joke. but this is probably going to be the best arguement to this thread.

Gscholz was in a NATO commanded military situation

And you have never been in any kind of military situation at all.
-
Because it sounds cool.
-
Depends, does getting shot at in the Bronx count?
-
...do we let France in?
again?

G-man takes the bait, hook line and sinker-He runs off a couple of hundred yards from the International 50-W, drag singing. We got a big one, here Me thinks, as I set the hook with a savage motion:
Nato is what the UN would be if it had nuts.
-
Uh-Oh, the G-Fish is running towards the boat! There is slack in the line!
No, G-man, NATO is founded on principles of mutal protection hrough interforce training and commonality of weapons. Who will command who is clear, and the force structure is trained an in place. ]
As my favorite college professor would say, "Compare and contrast".
-
NATO is going to invade France for not passing the EU Constipation.
-
Nah.
Guantanamo Bay is full...
..sadly.
You could however get your P.M. and a flying squad of N.Z Scnitzengruben to parade in front of the Eiffel Tower... I'm sure they'd just capitulate.

France have WMD's, I think, well I'm pretty sure... theres a couple of glowing atolls in the south pacific.
-
WMD's in french translates as Women w/Massive Dicks.
Yah.. they got LOTSA them.
:D
-
lol.:rofl NATO was to provide protection to western europe from the big bad warsaw pact thingy. now? ummm, maintaining piece in the balkans. Like a mini UN, but with balls.:aok
-
Ill take NATO over the UN anyday. Personally i think the UN is too much BS. UN didn't help us in the war with Iraq, but NATO did. I dn't believe NATO is outdated but the UN on the other hand is.
Viva la American!

Dear Mr. NATO guy,
I would like you to kick out the French. They have stolen all of the white cloth in Europe and America. I have information that they are making them into flags. I believe they are getting ready to surrender before the next war even starts.
Thanks,
A concerned American!
:lol :lol
-
...I heard all the broomsticks that Ace Hardware had in stock were shipped to France.
Hmmm.... white cloth.. broomsticks..
Nawwww.. couldn't be.
Not AGAIN!

JATO!!!!!!

Well not , last year he almost drowned in the Méditerranée try to drive past Nice :D

It's inevitable that EU Army will increase its influence when its growing and that also means NATO/ US will lose (some of) its powers.

It works as long as its a defence pact.
Good for the military industry.. (standards)
Sounds cool.
Transparency within the member nations.
Shared intel
-
A lot of France bashing!
Are you guys sure that their wmilitary is so crap!? They seem pretty serious to me!
( Foreign Legion Anyone? )
-
They are serious, and they are in the beginning of a big modernisation programme.
-
Because they pay me.... tax free!!
Seriously, if NATO didn't exist then it would be replaced by something else that would start out small and grow large again, a la NATO.
I'd sooner have NATO than the UN. NATO has proved to be a useful ally in all areas, not always associated with the North Atlantic I might add. With the introduction of former Warsaw Pact countries to NATO it has also shared the workload of peace keeping duties. Better to have allies than enemies.

Ah ... the "if you haven't been in war you have no right to comment" argument. JB73 can say whatever he wants whenever he want.
Btw. why are you commenting? Have you been in war?
I didn't say that at all, GS. I don't think military service means beans as far as opinions or character goes- you are a case in point, rather you've served or not.
And I'm commenting because I fugging FEEL like commenting... If you don't like my comments then e-mail Skuzzy and complain, OK?
And the answer to your question is yes, but only once and only for a year, and probably while you were still in diapers, if you were even born yet.
