NATO allies prepare unprecedented air deployment exercise over Europe in show of force to Russia

Not scared, but better to be prepared, no?

Basically 7 rich Europeans and Americans are scared of 1 poor Russian.

That 1 poor Russian stole something from his neighbor and won't give it back. And also there is the issue that he shouldn't be allowed to kidnap 44 million people and their resources for his criminal enterprise.

In other words, Russia's military spending is only 5% of NATO's.

There is also the issue that European NATO is divided among 30 countries and can't exactly move in a coordinated manner all of the time. Also, because NATO was the one looking for peace here, it hasn't been able to park all of its forces and nukes on the Russian border.

@What ol' Jack Burton always saysToday 10:57 am JST

Oh boy oh boy does NATO feel threatened or what ?

No, he is stating the obvious that the days of distraction in the ME are over and the airmen need to be ready for a conventional war.

Who's challenging NATO ?

The country that has politicians musing about taking over Poland, the Baltics, and Odessa.

Looking for peace and all they found was war .

I know, because Russia is nothing but an instigator and a warmonger.

But that's how America does it so why hypocritical ?

The US kidnaps nobody. Countries can tell the US to leave at any time. The Philippines did this.

Unless NATO is actively going to fight on the side of Ukraine in Ukraine it means nothing.

like being inside your house with a dog barking outside. No impact.
