We did care if Europe survives ..once, way back when Europeans cared themselves.
As funny as the coments are, we still must face the fact that islamo-fascit terror is a global threat. A fact that the mypotic Left can see because they are so focussed on attacking Bush that they don't realize the ammunitiion they give Al Qaeda and their il on a daily basis.
David Limbaugh writes:
Liberals have become so used to defaming President Bush, it apparently doesn't occur to them that they are doing much more to harm America's image than President Bush.
How can we possibly expect other nations -- even our allies (who one would reasonably assume not to be as loyal as our own opposition party) -- to hold us in high esteem while that opposition party daily proclaims that our president is an uncompassionate, dishonest, Machiavellian, imperialist, racist, oil-thieving, unilateralist, sadistic, torturing cowboy hell-bent on alienating peaceful Muslims the world over?

Bill Bennett Writes:
Item: Dana Priest of the Washington Post writes a front-page story on Wednesday headlined, CIA Holds Terror Suspects in Secret Prisons. Pay close attention to the second sentence of the story: "The secret facility is part of a covert prison system set up by the CIA nearly four years ago that at various times has included sites in eight countries, including Thailand, Afghanistan and several democracies in Eastern Europe, as well as a small center at the Guantanamo Bay prison in Cuba, according to current and former intelligence officials and diplomats from three continents."
"Secret"! "Covert"! So after the press and the Left make a meal of the allegation that people in the White House might have leaked the name of a covert operative, and after we find out that Plame was indeed not a covert operative under the law, the Washington Post — by its own admission — can print classified information that involves covert CIA activity?
This is an outrage. It took less than a day for al Jazeera to run with the story. And by Dana Priest's own admission in an online discussion forum on the Washington Post's website she states, "The article [I wrote] is bommeranging [sic] around Europe, especially Eastern Europe." Story

While debating a European (British), my point was that the US is losing its Euro-centric identity. America is becoming more multi-ethnic. A lot of people immigrating to the United States becoming citizens and voters have no reason to love Europe. Should Europe find itself in a hole again it should not automatically count on America to come to its aid. I was basically told to go F myself as Europe will never ask nor need America's help. Ok, debate over.
Watching the events of the last two weeks I would say that Europe would be wise to re-access its relationships. They are falling apart with every passing day. Unemployment, lack of national pride, socialism, are the least of their problems. They are an explosion waiting to happen. As a history major (European Medieval, Renaissance, Reformation), my heart hurts when I think of what is happening there. Each day, though, as the insults, invective, and abuse flows from Europe toward my country, my President and my fellow citizens, I find myself caring less and less.
It is an odd situation. Europe seems obsessed with alienating America's Rightwing. Don't they understand that if anyone were to aid Europe, the Right would be the impetus of that help. The Left would diddle while Europe burns as evidenced by the behavior in Paris.
Do I care? Yes, I care about the great architecture, great art works, and religious history that will be destroyed by the soon to be muslim masters. As for Europeans, I am sure there are still people of good will in Europe, but far too few to make any difference.
