IS NATO IMPERIAL OR FEDERAL?
Remind me again how long the Czech people resisted the Germans, then the Hungarians, then the Russians, then the soviets? For a time the country ceased to exist. In 1968 it only took the soviets seven days. And how would the people resist them today? Or resist anyone else for that matter? And so, what is the ‘price’ for the privilege of the sovereignty the Czech people have today? And what is the social, economic, political, and strategic value of EU and NATO participation vs those who lack it?

While you are correct that the Enemy rides on the postwar institutions, that does not mean the the postwar institutions are flawed, or that there is a superior alternative, other than an a compulsory EU military and the higher taxes to pay for it, it only means we have not (yet) ended the capacity of the enemy to undermine our people and our governments (which is our organization’s mission.)

The global anglosphere, and the continental germanosphere would much prefer not having to carry the burden of ‘poor europe’ but, and France would love to contain Germany as the dominant power over the continent, just as would Russia. So an EU military with USA levels of funding and participation, would radically benefit the USA and the Anglosphere whose only concerns are naval and air, and have nothing to do with land wars. The problem is the total EU military spending at 200 billion is 1/4 of the US spend of 800 billion, despite the EU population being 510 million versus the US only 425 million, and the EU gdp of 19.x Trillion almost equal to the US’s 20.x Trillion. So why is europe riding on american people when the postwar agreement was for the purpose of rebuilding europe into a peer again? Only to have it be the child that stays at home and pays no rent?

So, fight the right enemy. Federation and the cost of federation is the only possible means of both retaining identity, sovereignty, and self determination within the limits tolerable by other members of the federation – which usually means defection to aide a foreigh power, or engaging in trade with foreign powers at the expense of members of the federation.
After all that is the value of federation: shared defense, shared trade policy, shared insurance against disaster and crisis, and credit capacity to insure all the above.

I want our people to live in safety and prosperity, and to end the second abrahamic destruction fo europe and if necessary contain it forever as the indians, russians, and chinese seek to do. That does not include however throwing babies out with the bathwater because of internl failures that can be corrected more easily than the entirety of the system can be replaced if lost.
