I think this is the crux of the problem. Some in TIO/NATO think that the fact that we haven't called anyone else in on this front means they have the advantage in numbers and therefore more bargaining power. The fact of the matter is that we have been fighting a war at a more than two to one disadvantage without calling in any allies because we respect the position of some of their allies, and we didn't want to drag them in. We still don't, but you can't use the artificial advantage that we've been willing to give you by keeping our allies out this whole war in order to leverage a "winning" peace for yourselves. You guys chose the losing side of this war. I'm not saying you made the wrong choice, but you have to live with the fact that our side is going to win, your side is going to lose, and the peace we settle will reflect that now or in the future.
