Do you realize who finances NATO? Certainly the majority of NATO's $$ doesn't come from mainland Europe. If you hate NATO, you leave. You don't use taxpayers money for your own defence while ignoring NATO obligations. Now I'm against NATO for America. However if another nation wants to be in NATO then fine.
The only explanation that I can phathom is that European governments are secretly afraid of the rise of Russia again, and they want NATO to still be intact while they don't want to fight a 'war on terror'.
