    I don’t think they can even trigger article 5 this time around since they attacked first.

    It’s a defensive pact, you can people to defend you not to join in a war you started.

      Not only a defensive pact, but limited to attacks in Europe and North America. The US did not want to fight colonial wars for European NATO members.
