> Imagine China entered into a "defensive" military alliance with Mexico.
Yeah. I'd be worried if I was a US citizen. Because China has a recent history of pushing airspace boundaries and behaving in an expansionist manner. But the comparison there is more accurately with Russia rather than NATO. Russia is continually making minor incursions into NATO and European airspace and waters, for example, whereas the reverse is very rare. I'm no fan of US foreign policy, but it pales in comparison to Russia's.
> Within living memory, 10 million Soviets were killed in an unprovoked invasion from Europe.
Believing that the political reality of Europe in the 1940s is anywhere close to today is bizarre.
