The "West" is pro: civil rights for women, minorities, gays and immigrants; international law; free trade, and democracy. The "West" is anti: authoritarianism; communism; fascism; and nationalism. NATO, UN, WTO, EU, NAFTA, International Court etc are all the apparatus of the West. Trump, Putin and other authoritarians and nationalists are fundamentally anti-Western. The right in this country is much more in-sync with those like Putin who are opposed to the West than with the values of the West. So...the attacks on our NATO allies are really attacks on the West.
