Stop NATO is an international email news list that examines, from an adversarial position, the expansion of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and affilated and allied military blocs into and throughout Europe, the Mediterranean, the Caucasus, Central and South Asia, East Asia and the Pacific, Africa, the so-called Greater Middle East and beyond.
NATO is the first attempt in history to establish an aggressive global military formation, one which currently includes a third of the nations of the world either as members or partners, has members and partners on five continents and has conducted active operations on four, with the potential to expand its reach into the remaining two where it has not yet officially intruded itself.
The list provides current and unique information on reports, developments, trends and analysis, usually from sources in the affected areas and regions, not obtainable from commercial news and other outlets.
Its focus is on information and the analysis thereof and discourages inordinate discussion of local partisan politics and abstruse polemics.
Stop NATO's orientation is anti-militarist, international and internationalist.
Its purpose is to document, anticipate, expose and oppose ongoing efforts to expand global militarization, including the deployment of advanced, potential first strike missile systems throughout the world and in space.
The list is moderated in order to maintain focus on issues and perspectives that it alone addresses on a daily basis.
