NATO has never once been used in a defensive war, and is constantly used in wars of aggression, primarily by the US. It would be too exhausting to even type and link the various countries the US currently bombing and fighting in during 2024.

The point of a defence pact is not to wage war, but to avoid it.

The US being a part of NATO does not mean all actions the US takes are on behalf of NATO.

Sure. But surely you see how providing us bases to launch its attacks, house air defense, and project military power.

The US doesn't spend billions defending foreign countries out of altruism. The US doesn't need help from tiny European countries to defend itself.
