I studied the Russian perspective in college and find their heroic struggle to be one of the most compelling in history. But any good student of history should look deeper, to the reasons why the Russians had to struggle...and those reasons are found both in the apple and the orange.
And I'll stick to whatever position I see fit. And the initial item being discussed was NATO, was it not?

Yes it was, and the reasons to stay in NATO or pull out. Historical fact is important in this discussion. BTW, much material has been released and make open to the public since you were in college, just saying.......
I noticed no one is trying to defend the WW I claim that we saved Europe. Fancy that!
