NATO is the biggest threat to world peace we have today, since it took form.

No it isn't. Russia, China, and the USA however...


explain, not using the past. Only one of the three you have are a threat, and it's willing tools.

Russia: Power Hungry

China: See above


What a great exemple! "Russia power hungry", you sir win. No way can I agrue with your post, which gives no exemple, no details, and is three words long! I bow to you, :bow:

Which is where you went wrong with your NATO post, my friend. Too wordy.

Okay, point taken. So what makes you feel menaced by NATO?


It's war one for Yugoslavia unnecessary and was a great risk for a border international conflict. USA, NATOs self pointed leader, always drags the entire allaince into wars like Afghanistan. While I can see how military intervention was needed, it did not call for the entire allaince to go into there. All it does is add tension in the gegion, and added to the poppie problem because USA former leader Bush seemed to never opened up a history book and complelty ran the war in the worng way.

As you said to me, that was in the past. Yugoslavia was during the Clinton Administration, which ended in 2001. I'm not sure how that one was a great risk for a border conflict, as the troops were there to maintain peace and to keep Serbia from commiting military aggression against its neighbors.

The members of the alliance were under no obligation to send troops to Afghanistan. As for George W Bush's skill in running the war, I agree with you. What does that have to do with NATO being the greatest menace to the world today?

Cynical manipulation of faith to justify violence, corporate greed, intellectual dishonesty, political corruption, apathy, lack of either true freedom or true equality, godlessness, forgetting humans are social creatures who create communities to survive and that for communities to survive there must be mutual rights and responsibilities...

The Socialist Republic of the Union of Myanmar (real-world) is currently developing nuclear weapons! Why aren't governments doing something about Myanmar? Why are they waiting to do something until a nation already has nuclear weapons? The Democratic Republic of the Union of Myanmar (NationStates version) is trying to simulate an alternate Myanmar that cares for its people instead of its weapons by purposefully starting out as a "Corrupt Dictatorship" and transitioning to a form of full democracy. Previously, China, Iran, Russia, and North Korea were mentioned. What about the real-world Myanmar? It's a nation whose capital is literally the world's largest military fortress-city (Naypyidaw)! Not to mention that it is recognized as having Asia's best and most experienced guerilla warfare trained military!
