A few comments on the Counterpoint. I’m curious what the writer would consider a greater role? US boots on the ground? More military hardware assistance? More sanctions even though Biden said they don’t work and, though he imposed them, were never intended to work?

And, if I recall, Obama and Bush both urged, ineffectually, the 23 out of 28 delinquent NATO members to “pay their fair share”. Trump’s more forceful urging resulted, at least, in some improvement in funding. ( Trump couldn’t dismantle NATO. He could only threaten withdrawal.)

I also got a chuckle, perhaps a restrained guffaw, at the phrasing, “….tried to dismantle NATO (under the guise that they were not paying their fair share)…”. As in, “the mean bank threatened to repo my car (under the guise of not making my loan payments)”.
