Backing NATO

This military alliance was set up to protect Europe from Soviet aggression after 1945. We don’t need to pull out of NATO, but it’s time to ask Europe who they are.  Are they still sovereign nations or are they going to be states that are subject to the laws passed by the European Union? 

The Brexit vote indicated that the UK was leaving the EU to recapture their sovereignty.

Will European countries continue to subjugate their own sovereignty?  Should NATO protect Europe from Islamic terrorism?  Is the NATO agreement void because it included separate countries that now seem to be merging?  Europe needs to choose whether or not to recapture their sovereignty or not.

I would back NATO until we can figure out what it has become and where we want it to go based on real threats and oppose the continuation of the EU and the UN as it is currently functioning.  It is clear that the UN needs to stop challenging the sovereignty of its member countries.
