Where are NATO ships to protect civilians against state terrorism now?

Seriously. Please someone stop us from continuing to kill people and fuck up the world.

NATO is entirely unrelated to this. You may as well have said any random military group from around the world.

The one you're.wanting.is USAN, though, by design—of which Venuzuala led the charge on—did not intend to be like NATO.

Odd that NATO ships had no problem intercepting Houthi attacks in the Red Sea.

By that logic, NATO is already in the waters off Venuzuala and it's blowing up civilian ships.

I think you need to learn what NATO is. You definitely need to understand that nations of NATO act independently or within other alliances every day, not as part of NATO.

NATO had no stance on the Houthis; they have no stance on Venuzuala... These things have nothing to do with NATO. They're just busy doing their thing, bolstering Eastern European borders against Russian drones—which is exactly what they exist for.

These executions are so blatantly illegal and a violation of all respect that it sucks just like all the stuff America is constantly doing nobody will do anything about it.

And he’ll continue to until he gets his Nobel peace prize. The biggest one. Better than all the others.

At this point he could destroy ANY boat or plane and say they were drug dealers
