a sh1t on the Danes for not being there in great enough numbers -
Which only demonstrates that you do not understand the argument at all. If Denmark is too small to contribute significant force, then the USA should not be it's military ally. If Denmark is large enough to have a significant force, but will not contribute it, then the USA should not be its military ally.
As you have tried on several occasions to both claim (as a rationalization for NOT doing much to assist the USA in A'stan and Iraq) and then disavow (because it's obvious that the WP was never and will never be landing on the Florida coast), continental European member states will never see a sufficient reason to assist the USA when the USA is engaged in a war. Not even when the USA is directly attacked. And despite the fact that the USA put orders of magnitude more men in the field to protect and defend continental European nations than any of those nations have put in A'stan or Iraq. Save one. The UK.
The UK is the only ally worth two shits that the United States has in Europe. I regret the anguish it causes you, but tough shit. If you want to count as an ally you all should have done more and better.
NATO is an utter waste of US economic, military and political capital.
Beer! You succinctly point out the uselessness of having "allies" who are unable to or won't help you. Either way, that's a bad ally. Not a bad nation or anything, but someone that you can't count on and isn't worth expending your blood or treasury for.
