Theyre called member states.

I really dont see what else you'd call the Libyan militants other than allies of NATO.
It's pretty clear that the facts as they stand without implication of any sort make you uncomfortable.
- notch656a 5y ago>Theyre called member states. The actual treaty does not call them member states. Member states is one accurate term to use, you can also call them 'NATO allies' or use the words NATO themselves use which is 'NATO countries.' Wikipedia for instance calls the member countries 'NATO allies' to refer to the member states at one point in the 'NATO' page, which you know damn well is what someone thinks of when you say 'NATO allies.' When you ask a 'member state' who their NATO allies are, no one is gonna say "Libyan Militias!" >It's pretty clear that the facts as they stand without implication of any sort make you uncomfortable. The only thing I find 'uncomfortable' is unscrupulous use of deceptive terminology.
