Even if we werent part of NATO the US does not want any hostile country occupying land on its continent.

If that is the only thing keeping us safe, then we do not have autonomy as a country. We must then do whatever the USA wishes to because if we don't, they would just take our resources for "national security."

If you think our defence has any chance against the US, then you are delusional, they could take us over any time they wanted. Even if the US left NATO and attacked us, all the remaining countries in NATO wouldn't be able to stop them.

There's just no benefit to them to take us over at this point and we keep it that way intentionally by remaining friendly and giving them most of what they ask for.
