1 NATO has lasted 60+ years more than it was originally intended to already.

(“If in 10 years, all American troops stationed in Europe for national defense purposes have not been returned to the United States, then this whole project [NATO] will have failed.” Eisenhower February 1951)

How Much Has NATO Cost the US since April 4, 1949?
U.S. contributed $21.9 trillion from 1949 to 2026.
Wow! what could we have done here in the USA with $21T

Then with the fall of the USSR in 1991 and the Curtain torn down, it should ended around 1995 or about 30 years ago.

5 Montezuma? He was an Aztec. Disgusting child-killing rapists and slavers. Fortunately they were overthrown and converted to Christianity. Ever since the New Covenant God's love is available to all, even pagans.
We are all God's chosen people now. Praise Jesus!

6 You’re right, Jack Guelph2611. I had the right song, but the wrong line and city. I meant Tripoli, of course. Thank you for catching that mortifying error of fact.

Mea maxima culpa.
