NATO's Role in Global Affairs....

[RICIA]

Can anyone give me a dummy's version of their role in mankind's affairs as well as prophesy?.

[shali]

I don't even know what NATO stands for! haha!

Then why comment?

I was hoping someone would explain what NATO stands for instead of berate me for being honest about what I understand.

North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

NATO has no biblical significance.

However, 2 key members of NATO, the US and UK, comprise the King of the South and the two horned wild beast in Revelation and the feet of Daniels statue vision/7th world power.

Just to compare and make it even more confusing for you because it's how I have always understood it! "That's all." NATO and it's global affairs is basically like saying you attack one JW, you attack EVERYONE under Jehovah's canopy even if you have a good heart and trying to become a servant. This is what would comprise of all of NATO's member states, partners, and whatever else. Then when given the authority and power (NATO) for defense from Jehovah (UN: Security Council) can do a lot of damage with an entire fleet of Jehovah spirit creatures and humans (when he did use humans.) It's "something" like that. I hope that sort of makes sense. But basically I wouldn't be surprised if they're used to 1) stamp out religion 2) be apart of trying to stamp us out. Someone correct me if I'm off base though.

NATO has gotten bigger when USSR collasped. And you might as well say Anglo-American power is NATO.

Yes, Russia seems to see NATO and its allies as a threat for their goal of world domin...I mean, maintaining (relative) peace in Eastern Europe/Eurasia. Now with the Ukrainian situation going on, I think the last one to comment was the Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs as how Ukraine applying for a NATO membership would ~severely damage the efforts to reach 'peace' in Ukraine. And not to say how happy campers the Russians have been when former Soviet satellite states in the Baltic have each (?) joined the NATO. And not to mention the balancing between West and East Finland is involved with the country's looonngg border with Russia, the similar sort of trying to bow before two masters as during the Cold War.

I find it quite amazing that new militant groups, guerrilla groups, and splinter groups pop up whenever seemingly some obstacles have been cleared, such as the huge US operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. And now no need to focus so much on Al-Qaeda, or in Africa Boko Haram or Al-Shabaab, when there's ISIS. How far can the cry for 'peace and security' really be?

Anotber amazing thing for me is how people just can't understand that their efforts and intentions--no matter how brave or honest--can't achieve peace in the world! Why do they keep on trying to go for this, that and the other form of government?! It IS broke, but you CAN'T fix it!

But I was already here and usually there is some smart, kind soul that is happy to answer questions - I assumed too much today.

I agree with Brigette. That was unkind, and unnecesary.

This CNN article pretty much says it...

"This decision sends a clear message: NATO protects all allies at all times," Rasmussen said on the second day of a NATO summit in Newport, Wales.

"And it sends a clear message to any potential aggressor: Should you even think of attacking one ally, you will be facing the whole alliance."

And you did right to ask your brothers and sisters, since on Google you would not be able to obtain an answer.

What is it they say, There is no such thing as a silly question if you truly want to know, just a silly answer.

I've wondered if Jehovah sets up there, and ask  "Now, why would they try that? Don't they "study" my Word?"

(this is said in a teasing way, and not to demean our great God in any way, shape, or form!)

I think it's pretty simple...They keep trying LoneWanderer because in a way like us they know no other way. So to them they think if they give up they failed. Just like if we give up we failed.
