Ok....but all the violators youre mentioning are in the areas of the Pacific, Mediteranean, Black, Arabian, China etc...seas and oceans basically.
So why again should the NORTH ATLANTIC TREATY ORG get involved when its not...frankly...in their encompassing areas???
Just the opposite. They should stay out of it.
I agree but the problem is..
Evil prevails when good men fail to act
NATO has the power to stop it
But they won't, for the simple reason that the worlds safety will be put at risk
The worlds safety put at risk hahahaha, the world safety was put at risk the minute nato started it's expansion eastward to the point were at the Ukraine red line now. The world's safety was put at risk the minute US started putting bases in other countries.
Now we cant get rid of you buggers.
If you think we are your allies, you're very mistaken.
When shat hits the fan, we're taking your bases and missiles in them. Nukes n all and you're OUT and if a yank gets in the way, we just out number em and hang em.

Firstly we need to clear up where you are from
Secondly I am not American
Third, it is the EU not the US
Fourth, that's up to the Ukrainian people, the majority have spoken

Last I checked Ukraine is not in the EU and won't be for a long long while, in fact Turkey may have something to say about it since they have been waiting for decades to join.

They've sure kept fighting hard for people with a broken back.
We threw them out of office and official Government positions within Afghanistan (which the guys at the time were ordered NOT to do, by the way.. Kabul was supposed to be left to Spring, oddly enough) but the segment that formed that Taliban "government" was fighting clear back to the 70's and are still fighting today.
It's we who cannot seem to get a Status of Forces agreement beyond 2014 (no complaints from me) and the Taliban who Karzai is looking to have tea with and talk future realities.
Who broke who? It's not our military they broke. It's the political will behind it...and that's worth more to an enemy than 100 battlefield victories. Political will ends the war in their favor. This makes 2.

So i guess those right sector guys are now going down the streets and picking up russians.
and robbing them
and holding knives to their throats.
Just for being russian and wearing pro russian things. Does that sound familiar at all? (it should)
Why doesn't nato do anything about this? Because russia seems to be doing something about it, or trying.
Running through the translations.. not a lot of nice things being said about those guys (in russian). I would personally already be out on the streets with a bat in a similar situation, breaking these guys skulls in.edit on 26/3/14 by AzureSky because: (no reason given)edit on 26/3/14 by AzureSky because: (no reason given)

In all fairness, the US and NATO military power is the predominant military power on this planet today.
So I assume they are doing what they think is necessary.
However their actions may not be visible to you; or their assessment of the situation may differ from yours.
We people often jump at the news. News is often imperfect.

(I am going to get a lot of flack for this, but I'm perpared)
NATO.. DO SOMETHING!!
North Korea is now firing medium range missiles in defiance of UN resolution, Syria once again used deadly gas this week , Russia took over Crimea in the face of international law and IMO soon over to Kiev, Iran on the verge of nuclear breakthroughs once again in defiance of UN, tribes in Southern Africa are causing mass genocide over the years. Military might doesn't mean anything in the 21st century.
We fought the world 50 years ago and with help of Russia we won, now we have an obligation to the free world.
At the cost of young lives you may ask? Well, what this chaos may lead to something MUCH worse.edit on Wed Mar 26 2014 by DontTreadOnMe because: Mod Edit: All Caps – Please Review This Link.

I agree OP NATO needs to grow a set and get off the pot. Weakness will lead to all out war as 2nd rate powers around the world try and become bigger powers. The weaker we are the harder they will push.
If I lived in Poland I would be very nervous they should change the gun laws and arm every single person and form militias. Poland has ever reason to be looking east because looking west all they see is weakness and apathy.
