So I was recently listening to how NATO is undergoing some rather extreme pressures because of the situation in Afghanistan, and the report went on about the lack of commitment from certain European members, putting caveats on where their troops could serve and so on. It got me to thinking about the growth of NATO. Right now NATO has expanded to include countries that are no where close to the North Atlantic, but who are all European. So I was thinking about possible expansion of NATO in the Americas. In Europe NATO expansion appears to be something of an award to the democratizing ex-Soviet Bloc, so why not extend those awards into the Americas?
My challenge is to find a POD that would have at least Mexico and the Dominican Republic in NATO by Jan 1, 2008.
