Quote:Republicans and Democrats alike talk of turning NATO into a global alliance of democracies, the vehicle of choice for projecting power wherever and whenever common threats arise.
Does this mean that Nato is regarded as an instrument by which military force can be dispatched to anywhere to defend their interests?
Sounds like it. A dubious proposition, but that seems to be what it says.
Power doesn't always have to be military force.
Still, my vehicle of choice for projecting power remains the Abram tank.
