NATO to Debate Protesters, Bet G8 Won't Do That, Bet Obama Won't Do That, Bet Pentagon Won't Do That
NATO representatives will meet with members of the largest anti-NATO protest group next week for an unprecedented one-hour public debate, NBC Chicago has exclusively learned.
Word of the strategic gesture toward the protesters came Wednesday afternoon from NATO's secretary-general following his meeting with the president at the White House.
"Our public diplomacy people are reaching out to these groups," said Anders Fogh Rasmussen. "They will organize some meetings where there will be a possibility to exchange views.
The event will begin at 6 p.m. on Thursday, May 17 at -- in a bit of irony -- the Pritzker Military Library.
"We get to have a public forum where we are able to convince our fellow residents of this city just how bad and nasty an institution NATO is," said Andy Thayer, an organizer of the Coalition Against the NATO / G8 War & Poverty Agenda.
Thayer and other protesters take issue with the money spent on NATO operations and its occupations in sovereign lands, and he said he hopes the public demonstrations and next week's dialogue will enlighten more people to NATO's actions.
"I would argue that most people in this country, when they get to know the facts about what NATO is ... and what NATO does to places like Afghanistan, they would agree that this is not something that should be supported, that our city should not be supporting the NATO Summit," Thayer said.
During "Chicago Week" at NATO Headquarters in Brussels in March, there may have been a preview of how NATO representatives will respond.
Upon being told of the protest slogan that "NATO is the war machine of the one percent," U.S. Ambassador Ivo Daalder rejected the notion, saying he believes NATO's true mission is sometimes misunderstood.
"I wouldn't regard NATO as a war machine for any percent," he said at the time. "What NATO is is an organization that brings together 28 countries."
The summit is May 20 and 21.

Nato's head, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, clearly is CLUELESS, but also self deluded enough to think that he can justify NATO'S FASCIST SUBSERVIENCE TO FASCIST U.S. EMPIRE, with its illegal aggressions, illegal drone aggressions, murders, its illegal torture sites around the "NEW EUROPE, former Stalinist dictatorships, now Western thuggish class elites involved in rendition, war crimes and Fascism.
HOW DO YOU DEBATE THAT?
Perhaps NATO and its military fascists could explain how and why it became a tool for Western Fascism, Fascist Zionism, Fascist U.S. EMPIRE. Is NATO going to go along with support for Israeli aggression against Iran, promoted by Biden, where liberalism has degenerated into this Fascist support for Fascist Zionism. Then if Obama and Biden does not agree with self defense by Iran, and attacks Iran as well, will NATO PARTICIPATE IN THIS FASCIST AGGRESSION, based on the same lies of Bush and Colin Powell? History suggests that WESTERN FASCISM AND NATO WILL ATTACK IRAN, AS THE GERMANS ATTACKED POLAND THEN SOVIET UNION.
By the way Poland is prosecuting its FASCIST MILITARY, SECURITY THUGS, for participating in NATO'S torture, rendition in Poland. The Poles had no say so about this War crime, as ALL of the 28 nations have their social majorities ignored for Western elites, and their Fascist policies:

excerpt:
"The window has not closed in terms of the Israelis if they choose to act on their own militarily," the Vice President told the congregation. "I would not contract out my security to anybody, even a loyal, loyal, loyal friend like the United States."
This is not the first time Biden has made such a comment. During an appearance on the ABC's "This Week," Biden told George Stephanopoulos, “Look, we cannot dictate to another sovereign nation what they can and cannot do when they make a determination — if they make a determination — that they’re existentially threatened and their survival is threatened by another country.” Biden comments were immediately walked back by the Obama campaign..."
CLEARLY BIDEN AND LIBERALS HAVE DEGENERATED INTO WARMONGERS, PSYCHOPATHS, FASCISTS, GIVING SUPPORT TO A NAZI LIKE AGGRESSION TO ISRAEL , IMPLYING WESTERN SUPPORT, NATO SUPPORT , PROOF ALL CLASS IDEOLOGIES HAVE SLIPPED INTO THIS FASCISM, ESPECIALLY FASCIST ZIONSM.

WESTERN FASCISTS LIKE BIDEN WILL DRAG NATO INTO SUPPORT FOR ISRAELI FASCIST AGGRESSION, NOT DEBATED BY NATO, WHICH IGNORES ITS 28 SOCIAL MAJORITIES IN THOSE CLASS STATES, UNDER A FASCIST MILITARY ALLIANCE.
