Seems like NATO is under alot of flak lately. Let's share some fun/memorable stories about joint-trainings, deployments together, exchanging MRE's and good banter to reminisce about the good old times.
Are Canadians known internationally for being particularly high strung?
Most of these are on point bar the Canadians, I don't really see them being angry, but maybe they were in the 80's.
>>65033406>NATO>tiktok dances>BRICS>getting blown up by the hundreds of thousands ZOG will never recover from this.
>>65033350>as available as a belgianaside from lots of holidays and clocking out earlyover half the officer in the belgain army where (functional) drunks my father managed the stock of a officers lounge during his conscription and his day would start with delivering dozens of bottles of whiskey, cognac ect. ect. to the offices.
>>65033350>as an American>flexiblesuch as abandoning Ukraine to Russian talking points. quite flexibility as a nation, being over to receive multiple cocks up your ass, usually of the israeli and russian variety
>>65033657American military doctrine is infamously rigid
He's really going to leave it, isn't he?What would happen if America left NATO?
>>65033707There would be nothing stopping the other NATO cunts from perusing their own unique weapons programs. So, there would be more Kino in this world
>>65033693oh cool but I didn't ask
>>65033721Thanks for the (You) sweetie
>>65033717Which will not happen given the fact that they didn't contribute the 2.2 bare minimum GPD as a member which USA footed for many years
>>65033764https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MBB_Lampyridae
>>65033766Big deal, a paper model
>>65033693It's funny, I work with americans and I have never seen anyone be so by-the-book and narrowminded as those people. No flexibility, no fantasy, if something doesn't work by some fancy acronym or "that's how WE do it" it's not done, even if it were the sensible choice.Shattered my preconception that burgers were pragmatic above everything else.
>>65033764There has never been a minimum requirement. The US has also does not foot the bill for NATO
>>65033766>the Americans made us do it!>West Germany Yeah....no.
>>65033817White collar types have been mentally broken by the HR epidemic since 2008. Blue collar Americans will fix something with welded paperclips and slurs
>>65033853That actually sounds like a reasonable explanation, since I do indeed work a tech job.
>>65033350>Be Norwegian >Go on Cold Response military exercise>Link up with alot of different battalions during the exercise>There was a Swedish attachment (They're NATO now ok?)>They're setting up a tent like pic rel>Struggling badly despite being 10-15 Swedish soldiers>Norwegians gathering around to stare as one of the Swedish NCO's is losing his temper, shouting at his subordinates>Some of the most famous Norwegian jokes go like: "How many Swedes does it take to screw a light bulb? etc.">Norwegians are seeing this joke materializing in front of their eyes, they're all giggling even the officers>The Swedes are getting more and more panicky>More Norwegians are gathering as the Swedish NCO is shouting>They finally get it up after 10 mins and the Norwegians make a big cheer for the now red-faced SwedesGood fun. One of the more memorable moments alongside doing an assault with the Canadians on the Dutch and swapping MRE's with the French mountaineers.
>>65033707Europeans checking out the insides of their F-35's and Abrams tanks and bringing to market slightly altered copies in a few years.
>>65033350On a training exercise with Germans, in the woods, in the bleak northern European midwinter, this dude I served with snuck up into their tent, germs were nice, everyone drank some beers, got cought later, had to carry sand in weight he drunk for the rest of the weekend, it was about 5 kilos
>>65033897Nobody needs to clone Abrams', Europeans literally produce better tanks.
>>65033842Oh..
>>65033915>constantly wage retarded wars>be in a constant dickwaving contest with your former allies>WOOOWWW WHY AM I SPENDING SO MUCH MONEY
>>65033707If the US left NATO, it would be a new stage of global affairs with two possible outcomes A) Europe breaks off from the US MIC. Independently gets its military shit in order as a whole for the first time in 80+ years. Starts functioning as its own independent strategic bloc, with potential interesting intervention resultsB) Europe fails to make a meaningful shift to domestic military production and a coordinated armed forces. Relegated to a collection a loosely-unified regional powers. No intervention capabilities beyond France poking around in Africa.
>>65033922Yet you couldn't refute the point. The US literally takes care of 60% of the bill, and the only reason some members finally made it to the 2 to 2.2% of their GPD was because they got called out
>>65033707No, Trump is going to invite Putin to join.
>>65033915The bot is lying to you. Stop using LLMs.
>>65033929As a Europoor I wish for A, but I'm too cynical to believe that our leaders could stop self sabotaging long enough to make anything but B a probability.Looking at Germans in particular here.
>>65033931>The US literally takes care of 60% of the billLet's go deeper into what "the bill" is.What specifically is the US paying for that should be covered by Europe? Because we know a lot of US spending has nothing to do with Europe
>>65033370Our reputation is that we're friendly and apologetic until we aren't. So you tend to see the stereotype jump between those extremes. It's like hockey fights or those clickbait "canadians go crazy in war" videos a couple years back[spoiler]...or how we're currently feeling about a certain president[/spoiler]>INB4 /k/ doesn't have spoilers
>>65033370Canadians have an odd predisposition for killing PoWs
>>65033931What point? That the person making everyone go to a restaurant, ordering the most food and eating it and eating the other people's food should be paying most of the bill?
>>65033962dumb phoneposter
>>65033370>>65033403quebecers tend to be like that.
Europe rearming massively and usa fucking off is the best for everyone. Americans are shit people nowadays.
>>65033817America has always had an obsession with the rule of law, which is why our constitution is treated as sacrosanct. This unfortunately means we are dominated by lawyers. Seriously, please liberate us from fucking pencil pushing bullshit artists, please.
>>65033991The sentiment is mutual. We should return to our isolation and leave Eurocucks to fend for themselves
>>65033707No, Congress is never going to allow thatLast year they voted that the US must keep at least 80000 men deployed to Europe.>>65033764Retard, you don't have a fucking clue what you are talking about, Trump is a lying mongoloid desperate for partisan support by making a non existent thing an issueThe US isn't paying for shit besides its own capabilities, that it would pay for anywayNATO exists to further its hegemony over Europe and get them to but US equipmentAlso to skullfuck RussiansKys retard
>>65033999>We should return to our isolation and leave Eurocucks to fend for themselvesSure thing, right after you have rectified all the damage you have caused since 1945.
>>65033350NATO won't help America open the Strait of Homuz despite the fact that we've been paying the bill for the freeloading bastards for decades. They can go fuck themselves.
>>65034011NATO was created to be used when a member was ATTACKED you cock juggling thunder cunt. Now fuck off back to hicksville with the Tangerine Palpatine just semi-literate fuck.
>>65034009Imao, I wish we wouldn't gotten involved in WW1 and WW2 and let you tards get fucked >>65034006Fuck off faggot. I want puccians hordes as dead as anyone living in a civilized country, but instead it's just ungrateful eurofags not realizing that the only reason why the USSR didn't steam toll Europe was because of the US. You literally own us.
>>65034011Read the articles that form Nato. Retarded americans getting baited into attacking Iran, because the holocaust merchants told them to, has nothing to do with Nato.
>>65034026Communism took Europe without firing a shot. The EUSSR has a stranglehold on Europe.>>65034025>>65034031>Unironic Orange Man Bad posts
>>65034026>Imao, I wish we wouldn't gotten involved in WW1 and WW2 and let you tards get fuckedThe US in WW1 really didn't do shit and WW2 served you to the same degree as it harmed Europe.
>>65034026We own you? I though that was China's burden?
>>65034025Iran funded Hamas, Hamas did October 7th, so NATO basically was attacked by Iran
>>65034026>but instead it's just ungrateful eurofags not realizing that the only reason why the USSR didn't steam toll Europe was because of the USDid you know that the US actually helped the USSR steamroll Europe? Lend-lease rings any bells?
>>65034047When did Israel join NATO again?
>>65034026You are a severely retarded mongoloid, let me reiterate for your smooth shriveled pea brainThe US is not footing fuck all, it is not subsidising Europe, its defense budget will remain the same and be spent on the same things with or without NATO and its recommended spending threshold. All NATO does is give a defense clause (used solely for US interests so far) and help with interoperability and standardization You are seething about some europoor vassals because you're a fucking cum guzzling spastic
>>65034053Israel is a US military asset and the US is the very core of NATO
>>65034051Britain was helping the USSR as well. A certain long-nosed people wants us to believe that the Allies were the good guys despite having Stalin on their side.
>>65034047>>65034058Fuck of AIPAC faggot, why don't we get the Jews to deal with Hormuz?
>>65034058The US is an Israeli military ass et you mean
>>65034058Fairly sure its the other way around
>>65034062>A certain long-nosed peopleTurks? Like the man you posted?
>>65034039Zion Don is a massive retarded faggot who loves sucking kike and russian dick
>>65034047Hamas was created by Israel, does that mean Israel did October 7th?
>>65034056>No, actually we're paying everythingNo you're not fucking faggot. Eurocucks have been dragging your heels for decades and I'm glad that Trump put you in your place and call you out. I really hope we leave your festering carcass to finally rot and die but you already did that letting Muslims to dominate you, rape your women and kids, and then arresting you for complaining about it online
>>65034104Nice reading comprehension you got there, my friend of darker shade and unclear racial admixture
>>65033911>ImplyingAbrams combines Challenger II's protection with the Leo II's weapon. Less Abrams have been lost in combat than Leopards, while not even the UK thinks the Challenger II is up to snuff on the modern battlefield.
>>65034104You can't even fucking read you half wit, inbred subhumanTry again, I'm not explaining this to you another time
>>65033350i dont really care about nato
Good to see that my thread went into the intended direction.
>>65034104Holy ESL...
>>65033915So the idea here is that if NATO was not a thing, the US would spend 0% of its GDP on subs, nukes, carriers and tanks?
>>65034118>Less Abrams have been lost in combat than LeopardsOk, now tell me how many Abrams and how many Leopard are in use there.
>>65034133You have to be the dumbest motherfucker on the board to think a NATO thread would go any other way during war tourism season
>>65034133the yuros are at fault for this, they strained american goodwill until none was left. maybe try not biting the hand that feeds you next time
>>65033999checked, but let's see how well you can defend your darling sugar baby (israel) without europe
>>65034133People don't tell stories on 4chan anymorethe last greentext I saw, let alone greentext thread, was in 2019
