No, I am Greek and i support our traditional friends Armenians, Serbs and Russians . I also understand that Baath although fascist can progress Arab nations and hammer islamists . Americans really screwed up with operation Gladio and the wars in Middle East , our national interests are not aligned with them .

I will only mention that US bases in the area blocked our communications during Turkish invasion in Cyprus , really they can F.O. and die .

It seems even Syriza ultimately decided that forsaking NATO was not in Greece's national interests. It is not really a great idea to put a bullseye on your backs by aligning with a power with an economy the size of California.

Forsaking NATO ? Greece deported Russian nationals only a couple of weeks ago for "messing with our domestic affairs" , 10 years after the EU start changing our constitution...

I agree with that; the secular Ba'ath movement could have potentially made the Arab world considerably better (and consequently not a vast reservoir of potential immigrants to Europe) than the religiously inspired wave of politicians that replaced the secularists, thanks to U.S. geopolitical strategy.

I overall feel that Western Europe and the U.S. form some sort of overarching entity though. A Western Europe not closely allied with the U.S. seems an aberration to me.

European neoliberals will drop relations with the US if Trump likes are keep on getting elected . Right now all the money flows to the US and by the time German money start going that way they EU bureaucrats will strike . You think all those gargantuan fines to facebook and google happen because they care about our privacy ?
