Good! The less of an European military there is, the more ours will count. And to the above poster, I'm overjoyed that the US is cutting a distinction between the way we view the world and react to it vs the way Euroweenies do. Military use needs to remain an option in today's world. Not the only option, nor the first, but one just the same. The fact that the arrogant Europeans refuse to acknowledge that is not our problem, nor should it influence us to do likewise.....
