France can go to hell. Time to pull out of Europe and re-station our troops on all our borders. Nato can cram it and defend themselves with one operational F-16 in Germany and a half dozen F5’s in Turkey. They won’t last 5 minutes against the Russian armed forces.
Russia doesn’t want to invade europe despite the neocon and NATO fantasies. The Ruski ground forces are about 360,000, compared to around ten times that number during the cold war.
Besides, taking over the EU would be a nightmare. Lets say you did it and won, and now you are there running Germany, France, etc. Congratulations on the mess of whiners, welfare queens, lazy workers, and moslems you have inherited.
I wouldn’t wish that on anybody.
