Is Voat a fed nest?
Very possibly. Particularly in the system subs where brigading is possible. But this sub is an oasis from it. Their downvotes will have no effect on your CCP here.
We reserve the right to ban anyone we deem to be disruptive without notice.
If you are observed calling another poster Jewish on Voat you will be banned in this sub.

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 ?
