Until the West overcomes its addiction to post heroic values NATO's programme of rearmament will do little to provide their nations with genuine security
War, fought by these western countries with the exception of Israel is done at a distance, not close up. Western countries don’t feel threatened even if they are. Even the last foray , whilst being a very brilliant exercise of might and power was done at a distance. Bombs are dropped, key installations are destroyed, even lives taken very cleverly. Drones are sent to fight both in the Middle East and Ukraine. Apart from the lack of patriotism, war will be fought as cyber attacks, taking down the communication and energy systems of countries. Sleeper cells consisting of middle eastern, African, perhaps Indian and Chinese will attack from within because we have been stupid enough to allow these cultures to come and live in our countries and haven’t insisted on them giving up their allegiances, clothing, customs and embracing judeo Christian virtues.
It is indeed strangeness to increase defence spending when the threats are mostly within. Most western countries don’t even see the “Palestinian “ supporting protest as a threat to their realms. They don’t see the climate nonsense as a threat to their well being. And they certainly didn’t see the COVID charades as an attack on the west. So increasing spending for what kinds of defence? I think they have to define the threat first.
