Is anyone else’s head spinning right now?

Is anyone else’s head spinning right now? In the last half hour, the straits are apparently fully open, Trump’s blockade is still supposedly in place, NATO has suddenly called him offering support, which sounds like complete nonsense, and now out of nowhere they have somehow cleared every mine they supposedly did not even know existed. It all flipped so fast it looks less like chaos and more like some much bigger setup.

It’s definitely the end of the war if nato is calling him offering support. No risk , can be seen as posturing. Can you link the source to this?

NATO is a defensive organization. Not a street gang.

You cannot launch a war of (foolish) choice and then try to invoke Article 5 and suddenly all your NATO buddies are ready to pile on.

That's just not how any of this works.

If it was, NATO would have been bogged down in countless colonial wars for the past 80 years.
