Europe may be on the cusp of a nightmare, but it’s not too late to wake up

MUNICH, Germany (Project Syndicate) — Europe is sleepwalking into oblivion, and the people of Europe need to wake up before it is too late.

If they don’t, the European Union will go the way of the Soviet Union in 1991. Neither our leaders nor ordinary citizens seem to understand that we are experiencing a revolutionary moment, that the range of possibilities is very broad, and that the eventual outcome is thus highly uncertain.

Most of us assume that the future will more or less resemble the present, but this is not necessarily so. In a long and eventful life, I have witnessed many periods of what I call radical disequilibrium. We are living in such a period today.

The first step to defending Europe from its enemies, both internal and external, is to recognize the magnitude of the threat they present. The second is to awaken the sleeping pro-European majority and mobilize it to defend the values on which the EU was founded.

The next inflection point will be the elections for the European Parliament in May 2019. Unfortunately, anti-European forces will enjoy a competitive advantage in the balloting. There are several reasons for this, including the outdated party system that prevails in most European countries, the practical impossibility of treaty change, and the lack of legal tools for disciplining member states that violate the principles on which the European Union was founded.

Europe, except the Eastern countries that learned what an invasion looked like thanks to Russia, has already lost to the Islamic invasion.

Since his dear Nazis and Hitler in Germany lost WWII, he’s been on a vendetta to get even, and has been working hard to destroy those that took his dream of a German controlled world away. He’ll die trying, but, he’s got thousands, perhaps millions of like-minded followers, perhaps the progressives/liberals in the ‘democratic party’. The enemy within.

“The EU was founded upon the idea of an economic union.”

I believe the EU was founded, for all practical purposes, as yet another attempt by all parties to dominate all others - as Europe has done violently for millennia. This time, they just tried to do it peacefully, and simultaneously.
As usual, it fails.

So Blofeld is still alive. His next manifesto will be “The World Is Not Enough”.

Time for this war criminal to pay for his crimes.

The EU was devised for better globalist control and to mask the corruption and debt these nations under their socialist puppets have created.
