COMMENT: Martin,

I must admit, I have never read NATO article 5 until this morning while reading your post from yesterday.

Looking at the actual wording, it seems to me that the whole article revolves around one little word, namely “it”.  In this case, it refers to each NATO member nation in the case of an attack on any other member nation.  To summarize:

“…each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defence…will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking…such action as IT deems necessary…”

Thus, each member nation is neither bound nor sworn to join into any attack, but only bound to take whatever action it feels necessary.

For example, a member nation could limit its support to humanitarian aid.  Furthermore, if a member nation believes any NATO nation provoked the attack, or believed the attack was a false flag, then the member nation could “deem” that no action was necessary at all except to discuss terms of peace.

You certainly have more experience in the law, but am I mistaken here?

REPLY: That is very correct. Trump would not be bound to join WWIII. That is why they are scheming to try to delay his inauguration so they can invoke Article 5. Just for the record, the last time Article 5 was invoked was 911 to justify invading Iraq, which had nothing to do with 911 and never had weapons of mass destruction. It was Dick Cheney who schemed to invade Iraq, and then they intended to go right into Tehran.

It was Dick Cheney who crafted the intelligence, and to cover his ass, he invoked Article 5 to start his war, which was, I believe, to conquer the Middle East. The US pitched it in October 2001, and as this article quotes, they provided “clear and compelling” evidence. Everything presented to justify this quest to conquer the Middle East was a lie, as always. They are preparing the very same strategy to conquer Russia and divide the spoils of the wealthiest nation on earth in terms of natural resources.

They have lied to start every single war because they get to expand the government and line their pockets. They have no remorse for the people who die in these actions. These people who constantly push for war are Psychopaths and are classified as people with little or no conscience but can follow social conventions when it suits their needs. They are far more dangerous than a mere Sociopath who cannot feel empathy and remorse but possesses merely antisocial personality disorder (APD) rather than a deliberate and conniving Psychopath.

Here is Lyndsey Grachm for once telling the truth. This is not about democracy, and nobody cares if any Ukrainians remain. This is about strip-ming Russian assets. They will invoke Article 5, and the main country NATO is pushing to be the attack-dog is Poland.
