I would disagree, based on the language of the NATO treaty.
NATO article 5.
"Collective defence means that an attack against one Ally is considered as an attack against all Allies."

- dogma1138 10y agoThat doesn't changes the fact that for the most part the US doesn't have an alliance, it has interests it want to protect or secure. That said for the most part pretty much every other country is no different, the only big difference is that because the US is de facto the biggest baddest mofo around it doesn't need to take anything from anyone which means often it's alliances are more "one sided" that what would traditionally be considered an alliance.
