I got a good laugh out of them, if I was the conspiratorial sort I'd think that the thread is being astroturfed. However my personal guess is there's a lot of posters from a certain English speaking nation that's anti-NATO and gets a lot of anti-NATO propaganda from it's government and media. So they're just reciting talking points.

Wait, I’m honestly having trouble figuring out what country you’re talking about. Is Ireland anti-NATO? Australia? I’m scratching my head trying to figure out who I’m missing.
Or is it a NATO member that’s anti-NATO? But in that case I can’t imagine that the government provides a lot of anti-NATO propaganda…

I was specifically implying India where English is an official language.

Ah, OK, fair enough. I wasn’t thinking about the relatively long list of countries that have English as an official language, though I suppose it’s quite likely the case that there are more English speakers in India than any country other than the U.S.
