sorry but what do you mean by “it´s a matter of willingness to fight? do your soldiers have a special willingness to fight in iraq for example? and if so what for they are willing to fight? this are professional soldiers. it´s their job to fullfill their duty in several parts of this world. so i don´t think it´s a question of willingness or not. it´s their job. no one forced them to join the military. and for combat experience. i guess before the iraq and afgansitan war started most of your troops did not have combat experience too. but still they did not preform bad. or did they? and NO european public would not support bombing civilan targets. but why should europe bomb targets in kosovo or serbia. the troops are allready there. the other side would have to attack our troops. not the other way around. and serbian air force for example is no match for a combinded european army.
Clearly you know little of the US armed forces and their motivation to fight what was a clear and present danger in Iraq as opposed getting involved with the destruction of a fellow European country in violation of the Helsinki accords. The European forces were ostensibly brought in as peace keepers, not as a fighting force and have not even been effective in keeping Serbian churches from being destroyed. If they are not motivated to keep the peace, there is little reason to believe they would be motivated to go into combat.
