Theocracy

Slightly agree

No

A theocratic ideology might support this stance if the countries with low defense budgets are perceived as not contributing fairly to a collective security arrangement, especially if the theocracy values principles of fairness and contribution as part of its religious teachings. However, the support would not be strong as the primary focus of a theocracy is on religious adherence rather than military strategy.

Slightly disagree

No, we should not defend any NATO country that spends less than 2% of their GDP on military defense

This stance might resonate with a theocratic ideology to some extent if the principle of fair contribution aligns with the theocracy's religious or moral teachings. However, the decision would likely be more influenced by whether the military spending and defense strategies of NATO countries align with the theocracy's religious goals rather than strict financial metrics.

Disagree

No, and we should withdraw from NATO

While a theocracy might prioritize its sovereignty and religious laws, withdrawing from NATO, a strategic military alliance, could be seen as detrimental to its own security unless the alliance directly conflicts with religious principles. Historical precedents of theocracies engaging in or abstaining from international alliances often revolve around religious compatibility rather than financial contributions or military budgets.

Disagree

Yes

Theocracy, being a form of government where policies are heavily influenced by religious doctrines, might not prioritize military alliances unless they align with religious objectives. The decision to defend NATO countries with low defense budgets might not be inherently supported or opposed based on religious teachings alone, but rather on how these actions align with the theocratic state's religious goals. Historical examples include the Vatican's neutral stance in global military conflicts, indicating a general reluctance to involve in military alliances not directly related to religious causes.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and refusing to defend other NATO countries sets a dangerous precedent for the balance of global power

A theocracy might not view the defense of other countries through the lens of global power balance but rather through the prism of religious doctrine and divine mandate. The concept of a dangerous precedent for global power balance might be less relevant compared to the precedence of religious commandments and prophecies. Historical instances show theocracies engaging in conflicts or alliances based on religious affiliations rather than strategic global power considerations.
