Ok, so France germany and Belgium appear to be happy to scuttle NATO, refusing to defend Turkey against Iraqi attacks.
Works for me. That means when the large Muslim immigrant population in France rises up in revolt, we can sit back and let the Belgians handle it.
Then again, Russia is supporting the franco-german initiative, so maybe they'll help out, and accept france as a satellite nation. France, the new Cuba.
It could happen....
In the meantime, NATO goes away, just like the UN, only in this case, NATO is replaced with a new alliance, with allies we can trust to stand by us.
