Which makes a lot of sense. If you could wait until you need backup to join, you'd just never join until you need it. No country wants to get sucked into someone else's war.

At least, that's the mentality. The truth is, no war is "someone else's war". We're all in this together globally, and oppression anywhere is a threat to everywhere.
