Does NATO have any obligation to defend Turkey in Syria?

May God forgive your ignorant remark. 54 German soldiers died in America's Afghan defeat.

Let us know when Germany starts paying for their own defense and their NATO commitments, OK?

You’ll need to explain how bombing a country which hasn’t attacked you or done anything untoward outside its borders is not aggression.

You'll need to explain why we should just sit back and let thousands of men, women, and children be murdered right in our backyard.

German blood is priceless. Donald Trump and his idolaters need to understand that in life there is more important things than money.

Afghanistan is in Germany's back yard. If Afghanistan falls into chaos, it will affect Germany.

It won't affect America.

Open an atlas sometime. You would not do well with Pompeo's outline world map.

It isn't as black and white as that. For example; under the Articles of the treaty if Hawaii were attacked it would not trigger Article 4 (military intervention). Thus an attack on Hawaii would not be considered an attack on the other 49. These grey areas within the treaty are deliberately designed to allow for discussion and consultation before any precipitously dangerous decisions are reached.

Neither does the US, except for its commitment to send young americans to be cannon fodder to our Israeli masters who see Syria as part of their "Greater Israel" plans.

You are desperate to ignore atrocities committed by dictators in order to cry about America.

Before the Serbs began their ethnic cleansing Slovenia and Croatia already had their ethnic cleansing. If NATO was so concerned about ethnic cleansing and genocide why didn't they intervene when Slovenia and Croatia were ethnic cleansing at least two years before Serbs began ethnically cleansing Bosnia? Because it wasn't about ethnic cleansing or genocide, it was about establishing US hegemony into former Russian territory. Which explains why NATO managed to kill more Kosovars, according to the UN, than the Serbs they were accusing of genocide.

Serbia was not former Russian territory. Yugoslavia was never a part of the Warsaw Pact; those who supported the Soviets were tossed in prison

You don't even know basic history and you expect anyone to take your claims seriously?

Source for this supposed Slovenian ethnic cleansing? Simply repulsing the JNA from their territory does not qualify.
