Only one way to find out. Time to de-fund NATO? That might be too far but what have we got to lost at this point! ;)

It is debatable if NATO provides "defense" for European nations. NATO is an aggressor, not a defender.

Hopefully the U.S does not sanctions other countries still in the Iran deal and try another Iran deal the both U.S and Iran can agree to. NATO should also be careful about getting into a war with Russia as they have troops along the Russian border and something could happen which starts a war.
