They are made to be willing by funding politicains that secretly support it. When they get in power, they join without the support of their people.
CIA has a long history of medeling in elections and this statement that it is willing is of course manufactured, as most of the democratic processes are.
Dude, that is not fair. Israel is taking land from Palestine, it is Isreal controlled land now and that is just semantics and you know it. The point is that Isreal is particiapting in genocide and Bidan has sidestepped congress to send them weapons. That is both undemoctratic and is support of genocide.
A country that is attacked by NATO doesn't join it after 15-20 years with their populations support. They fund the politicians that are pro-NATO and get them to join it without the support of the people.
It is what actually happened in places like Montenegro. Just beacuse it is horrible, don't assume it is not true.
As for blaming me of spreading a russian propaganda, beacuse of letting you know that we have part in impersialistic regimes, I have a book for you.
You can say that for literarly anything. Wikipedia has sources for every claim. Are you dispututing that NATO was in those countries. I have seen some of those troops in those countries with my own eyes.
I never said NATO is not effective defensive strategy for the government, just that it is effective offensive strategy as well.
However this only applies to the government, not the people. Troops are sent to die in these offensive wars, while otherwise they would be safe at home.
Don't spin this as an opposite claim that all non-NATO countries end up in a war. Some of the countries now in NATO where invaded by NATO first and then forced to join.
That is like saying surrendering is safer then being nutral, bacause they can't attack you if you are already surrendered.
Wikipedia has citations.
I don't know what could you find as more reliable? What did you have in mind?
Also I don't think this is fair. I gave you the source, it is just as reliable as any other, since it has citations for all of it. If the situtation was reversed and you saw wikipedia article that claimed the opposite and I replied exactly the way you did, how would you react? Be honest
There is this wikipedia article with a list of all the countires in the world with their military presence outside of their countries.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_with_overseas_military_bases
You can google for each of these countries as well, such as France and their presence in Africa, as well as other "past"-colonial forces, US with their presence in Kosovo, Turkey with their presence in a lot of Balkan countries (also previous colonies of Ottoman empire).
There is a lot of countries in the World that where past colonies that never got rid completly of their imperialist rulers. In fact during cold war they made an alliance just for that, that is where the term third world comes from
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_World
Obviously imperialist didn't like that and the media propaganda changed the meaning of that term to the "developing country" to excuse them staying there while they "develop". Never actually leaving of course.
What? What don't you understand in that sentence?
Are you saying there is no genocide in Israel? Or that Biden is not supporting it?
Because both are easily provable.
I made a very obvious counterpoint that citizens of the US are not to blame for their presidents actions, just like the citizens of Russia. You can't have it both ways.

All of NATO wars were in non-NATO countries, all where offensive invasitions. They fight in MIddle East for oil companies.
I do not sympathize with Russian government, they are just as bad when given the chance. But NATO is scarier.
Calling people to support Russia when they critisize your government is insane.
So are US people to blame for Biden supporting genocide in Israel? Or have they just voted for what they saw as lesser evil.
You have to understand that Navalny, has started as a real neo-nazzi. Talking about killing all the muslims in the area.
It is the same thing in every country. There are no real democracies in the World, people have to vote for the lesser of evils, or at least that is what they see as the only option.
But they also influence NATO organizations through various requirements of joining the NATO so that in the practice, they are involved. NATO as an organization has participated in mmultiple invasitions around the World, it is on the Wikipedia page. All of their military involvements where in non-NATO countries. Nobody ever attacked a NATO country, they never did a defensive war.

How is Russia one of the main reasons that Middle East is unstable? Middle Eastern borders where drawn by the NATO mamber states, all terrorist organizastions are now publicly said to be first funded by the CIA. Every war that started in the Middle East was by US invasion and funded coups. Russia is bad and it got involved in some of the confilicts, but lets not be blinded by the hatered towards them so much to forget all the crimes in the Middle East done by our governments and pretend it is Russias fault for everything.
In is defensive only on paper. In reality it is NATO weapons that supply wars in Middle East. Joining NATO isn't just mutual defense, you need to sign a lot of other requirements that inevitably gets you under strong influance of US military and finances. Check out military intervantions of NATO, they are all offensive, no one ever attacked a NATO country, they are too strong.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO#Military_operations
None of these counties they invaded where part of NATO, Iraq, Afganistan, Kosovo, Bosina, Libya.
Laws don't matter when you have the military power. Laws only apply to the weak. Powerful countires (and people) don't protect them selves with laws, since they have the military. When Assange and Manning published US war crimes, militry officials didnt go to jails, but they, whistlblowers and journalists did. Don't fall for the laws for a second, they don't apply to them.
Only on paper. In practice there are many financial and military infulence that US gets when a country joins NATO that result in joining wars in Middle East.
I think this haterred towards Putin blinded most of us to let governments increase their authorariansim. Like in US after 9/11.
Of course Putin is dangerous, but he can't even win a war in a small country right next to his. Lost more troops then Ukraine.
Meanwhile NATO expansion across the World and US influance is truely scary and unprecedented.
Most of the wars in World are started by NATO counties and here we don't hear about is as much.
All the invasions of Iran, Afganistan, Vietnam, Syria, etc where unjustfied invasions just like Ukraine and in case of Palestine, far worse. Yet, media successfully is pointing our focus on a single war in Ukraine where Russia has made no advencments and is clearly inferior military power.
It reminds me of 9/11, when fear from a small group of terrorist gave the government power to spy on all of its citizens, run torture camp in Guantanamo and remove citizens rights one by one.
They are made to be willing by funding politicains that secretly support it. When they get in power, they join without the support of their people. CIA has a long history of medeling in elections and this statement that it is willing is of course manufactured, as most of the democratic processes are.
