North Atlantic Treaty Organization

An organization that thinks the U.S. should pay all of Europes defense budget.

While this organization served a purpose, you can't make people care about things that are good for them. So Europe got fat, lazy and complacent about external threats. They both relied on the U.S. to provide their defense, and resented us for our patriarchal role. But that doesn't mean they're mature and ready to step up on their own.

Here are a few examples of why it's time has passed. Maybe there's a new organization that takes it's place, and offers the services to those that will contribute back. But for moochers, contributing without appreciation or others putting in their fair share? You just become an enabler to the moral and cultural decay.

2017.05.25 NATO - Trump criticized European Countries for doding their responsibilities to NATO, they startled slacking on their obligations slightly less, and came up with more money. The Press, Left and EU blamed Trump for hurting NATO by pointing out their failures and demanding they do better, white NATO confesses they got $100B and stronger because of it.
2019.03.22 Germany Reneges again - After failing to contribute their fair share for decades, Germany promised to start ramping up their defense requirements to be part of NATO. Then a few months later, they're cutting defense spending and promising to fall short of contributing half as much as the U.S. does for their defense.
Americans are imperialists - People that say Americans are imperialists don’t understand America (or what imperialism means). We want to leave the world a better place, and not just take profits exploiting the suffering of others; like the Europeans. Which is why Americans have always gotten out of conflicts as quick as possible. And our failures, are usually in leaving too soon, rather than not at all.
Legality of Iraq war - No war is legal or illegal, there's only moral or immoral -- and all wars are immoral (some just more than others), the only real issue is whether the war is more immoral than doing nothing. Now as for legal justification, there was more justification for the Iraq War than most of the wars we got into.
Q: What about Helsinki? - A: This proves media bias, more than Trump bias. Look, every President meets with the Russia. Virtually all Politicians say nice things about powerful leaders, and try to butter them up, and get some things from them, so they can play great statesman. But when Trump does less than Hillary, Obama, Bill Clinton, they scream.

This is looking at Government from an American, Libertarian, and idealistic PoV, that many foreigners will not understand.

Anti-American
If your org/agendas works against America, American Values, the Constitution, or rule of law, then that's anti-American.
