Both Germany and Poland are committing to defence spending on a scale not seen since the end of the Cold War.
A European war machine under US control is being imposed on societies increasingly unwilling to pay its price.
NATO is the core military alliance of the European and North American imperialist states structured around the predominance – increasingly brashly and recklessly asserted – of the US.
