American nukes in Europe serve NATO political point

An estimated 200 US air-dropped gravity nuclear bombs wil remain on military bases throughout Europe, according to a draft version of NATO’s new mission statement.
The American nuclear weapons in Europe are meant to intimidate the countries of NATO. America wants the NATO members to know who is the big gorilla with the nuclear club.
Any US weapons on foreign soil are there as a contingency. In order to ensure US security globally as well as domestically (some may also say in order to secure thier empire too) the US must station capital equipment / heavy weapons and personel around the world. This is simple and sensible millitary planning.
It's a sad state of a charade the U.S. continues to pretend it's a 'super power'.
Does it really need to propagate a 'shadow cold war' in some event a puppet president of the global Bilderberg's (Post Harry Truman) is going to have time to tell a NukWep Team to load an aircraft and launch somewhere to prevent a what from happening where? Or is that the plan? Alan Dulles must have whispered this in Eisenhower's ear to go ahead with the Atoms for Peace program in the Middle East. Then General Electric had Reagan programmed do a 'Teddy Roosevelt carry a big stick act' with Star Wars to supposedly head fake our best WWII allies-the Russians. If the world thinks those U.S. Patriot Missiles worked in the Persian Gulf War, then those war mongers have won a propaganda victory. George W Bush had no business becomingpresident, let alone negating the 1972 ABM Treaty.
And what did the head of NATO say - NATO will never attack Russia, So hey I suppose these are for someone else - Iran maybe! NATO - Not A Trustrworthy Organisation - the name says it all.
