Yeah, what has Poland ever done for us?  And it's not like the west hasn't turned their collective backs on them before.  Really, the Kurds, Jews, etc should be used to it by now.

How exactly does a missile shield in Poland or a billion dollars of aid to Israel benefit the American people?  If anything it just puts them at a greater risk.  The terrorist attacks on September 11th happened because of anti-American sentiment in the Middle East, which stems from our support for Israel, and our hand in the overthrow of Iran's democratically elected government, as well as half a million dead Iraqi children due to U.S. sanctions.
It doesn't benefit it us to have more alive Latvians and Finns?  Thanks for the history lesson though.

What exactly does Poland need defending from? Please don't make yourself into a joke by going on some delusional Putin/Russia rant.
Yeah, there is no chance in hell of the bear turning into a bigger dick if NATO goes away...no chance of that at all.

I'm glad the people you guys vote for have more balls than you do.

some of the European militaries are welfare schemes where the troops do make work, and are probably less "dangerous" than a street gang).
All of the "important" Euro countries have very competent, modern militaries that are man for man, on par with the US.  Yes, even the best rely too much on the US for force projection, but I wouldn't want to fight any majorish war without the help of the UK and Germany.
