From the transcript
It's likely the most powerful military bloc to have ever existed. In alliance with over 3.3 million active service members, a combined 5,943 nuclear warheads and a GDP 10 times that of Russia. Currently made up of 31 countries stretching from Finland and Turkey in the east to America and Canada in the west, NATO is the Goliath of modern geopolitics.
A concentration of old world and new world might. Yet, this doesn't mean that it's invincible. Just as biblical Goliath could be belled by a single stone to the head, there are certain weak spots where the right attack could potentially take down the alliance, exposed regions that keep NATO planners up at night, worrying about a future war.
From the lowlands of Lithuania to the icy waters of the Arctic, we've delved into the literature on NATO's greatest points of honorability. The place is that if large scale conflict breaks out, you should be ready to worry about.
