Back at you. I'm glad Europe, Asia, and Australia all said no to helping liberate oil from Iran.

Also, it's so weird seeing Americans wanting to leave NATO because NATO didn't help invade Iran, whilst forgetting that NATO is a defensive pact. Han shot first :headdesk:

I didn't expect any help from them.

That's not why I want to leave NATO.

>whilst forgetting that NATO is a defensive pact.

It didn't look very defensive when the Europeans dragged NATO into Libya.

Nobody got "dragged" in. Being that NATO is a defensive pact, no country was under any obligation to participate. There is exactly one time in history when a NATO country has actually invoked the treaty that requires help from other members, and I'm sure you know which country that was.
