• I mean, hasn’t this always been the case?

    When countries like Vietnam and Venezuela were “”“attacked”“” (read, their own citizens got fed up with their government’s shit and decided to have a go at socialism), the vanguards of “democracy” NATO definitely felt the need to “save” them (which, the people of a country saying GTFO to a capitalist government and trying to implement socialism is probably the most democratic thing possible).

    • NATO has never been p u r e l y d e f e n s i v e . Pretty much the only difference I see is people stop being able to post the “evil grinning Polish wojack pointing at the ARTICLE FIVE button” meme. Making this a net victory for NATO? I think? My honest read: this is a declaration of intent to go hog wild.
