Stupid article. At first it tells us to butt out then tells how to butt in.
My initial reaction is to let them go straight to Hades. On the other hand, it may be in our strategic interest to have a strong Europe in the coming century. One thing the article doesn't address is the effect of continuing Muslim immigration to Europe. It's about as large a phnomenon as the Gothis migrations of the Roman era.
Fine with me. Let's disband NATO and get our troops out of Europe. Eastern Europe would be delighted to give us bases at a fraction of the cost.
Oh, I'm sorry. Did you say that would cause quite a dent in many European economies ? Too bad, can't have it both ways. And while you're at it, how about repaying your WW II loans and Marshall Plan debts - you know, where we saved your bacon the second time while you were beginning your flirtation with socialism ?
Perhaps...we should let it die?
OK if i understood correctly the article opening this thread
I am french and i voted "NO" against french and german leadership in EU which is today a socialist leadership(since WW2 those to countries are sick with socialism and pacifism and it's easy to understand why).
The failure of Chirac and Schroder will allow a british,polish...(new Europe)leadership and so less socialism and a stronger alliance with USA for the progress
of freedom and civilization!
Hope!
