Yes or no? NATO PTOVOKED this war.

[gipper]

I'll concede if you post a link from a credible source that shows where NATO voted to authorize military action by its members in Korea.

That shouldn't be too hard from someone with your vast "knowledge" of history.

Thank you for your kind words.

The Korean War had numerous nations involved. I’ll grant you that NATO was too young to be named explicitly. However, nearly all NATO nations at that time sent troops to Korea during the Korean War.
The “Greater” UN Coalition during the Korean War

And what was/is wrong with that?

Nothing at all, except for the current bloodshed and possibility of subjegation.

So the expansion and increase of freedom and prosperity triggers evil totalitarians to war. Well, DUH!

NATO had barelyl even come into existence when the Korean War began. It was the United Nations that fully approved nations helping South Korea militarily. Many of the nations involved in the Korean War have never been members of NATO. Including Australia, Ethiopia, to name just a couple.

NATO was indeed involved in the Korean war

 

[tahuyaman]

Indeed, NATO was not involved in the invasion of Iraq.

Yes they were .

 

[Meathead]

Yes they were .

FFS. I'm not wasting my time. Google it.

So you are admitting that NATO (as an organization at least) was not involved in the Korean War?

Thank you. Concession accepted.

Prove it.

Prove it.

Same NATO nations sent troops, just not under the NATO flag. Do you really think that makes a big difference?

Yes. In the real world things like that make a difference. Often a huge one.

True, but not in this case.

NATO expands and increases freedom??? WTF. How?

 

[Dayton3]

NATO expands and increases freedom??? WTF. How?

There are strong internal pressures on NATO members to be free and democratic.

It helped in Turkey, Greece, and Italy to name just three.

By increasing the alliance of European democratic nations. Are you drunk?

Ukraine is about as democratic as Russia. Wake the **** up. Stop consuming lies from the billionaire/CIA controlled media.

Then why accept Ukraine which is a Nazi influenced authoritarian oligarchy?

If you believe Ukraine is like Russia, then you are drunk.

 

[gipper]

If you believe Ukraine is like Russia, then you are drunk.

Their government is every much like Russia’s, but with the added plus of Nazi influence. Why do you support Nazis?

Since the USSR walked out and couldn't block it, a great number of UN members sent troops to Korea to block the Soviet-supported North Korean INVASION of the Republic of Korea. The fight was under UN auspices, not NATO. NATO is limited to DEFENDING member nations, but membership in NATO doesn't prevent member nations from pursuing their independent security needs outside Europe.
