@Celtic,
About Barack Obama telling European nations what (not) to do: if Turkey, Greece, Spain, Portugal, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, Germany etc. etc. and all these other NATO countries would be attacked, the United States has not only a political, but even a *legal* obligation to come to these countries' aid. *Certainly* the United States government has a right to speak out on the politics of these nations as they're supposed to send twenty year old in war zones if these countries screw up.
It's a perfectly healthy practice in international politics to debate all kinds of matters and if it's all the same to you and Draug, that's exactly what we're planning to do in this thread. You know what they say: words can't hurt anyone, the UGM-133 Trident II missile can.
