Stupid is as stupid does. Trump on NATO being obsolete..."I said a long time ago that NATO had problems......Number one it was obsolete, because it was designed many, many years ago.....Number two the countries weren't paying what they're supposed to be paying," adding that this was unfair to the United States." He was absolutely correct and he was in fact, delivering an early message to world leaders that the US was tired of footing the world's bill and it was time to not only pony up but change up. Today... "The United States has demonstrated not merely with words, but with its actions, that we stand firmly behind Article 5, the mutual defense commitment." He affirmed support for Poland, dissed the terrorist scum, and chipped on Russia. So WTF is your problem?
Correct cause if and when NK can, it will send us a nuke and the more American bastards they kill, the better - to them.
[QUOTE="GiantDuckFan, post: 1632520, member: 18213" The threat is now too dangerous for diplomacy, the ICBM tested on Tuesday can reach Alaska, it's been stated that in 2 years that missile will be reliably able to deliver a payload strike on North America,.. action is warranted and necessary, but what could/should be done. [/QUOTE] The missile has range but they have a long way to go to make it a credible threat. They have to design and build a reentry vehicle that will survive the heat & pressure of reentry. And it's unknown if they have warheads small enough to fit into the RV.
Obviously, I have a different understanding of what "obsolete" means. Mine is according to the dictionary; yours is according to whatever you happen to need to save face at the moment.
No longer produced or used; out of date. So what version are you using? In the general context of what Trump said, he was and is right. Poland is actually living up to the NATO standard, however out of date it might be, and they, as the US, should be thanked.
Couple things: 1/ You need to learn how to use the quote functions. Bengal B tutors for the forum. See him. 2/ You sound like you know an awfu lot about blowing shit up. When you were a kid, I bet you would firecrackers in frogs' asses.
