Where to begin? The US is waging a proxy war on Russia using Ukrainian soldiers as canon fodder. That's not a conspiracy. I don't have to be anti-American to conclude that Europe has sold the future of its citizens to American imperialism which is all that NATO represents. Europe can no more fall into a new dependence on the US than a foetus can fall into its mother's womb. Rather than feeling animus towards the US I am astonished at the utter ineptitude/corruption of European leaders.
