Not a chance.

There are all kinds of provinces all over Europe that would like to split off, whether to be independent or to unite with a different country.

The Flemish would like to split from Belgium. Catalan would like to split from Spain. Venice from Italy. There’s the Basque, Bosnia, there are dozens.
It might not seem in the realm of possibility now, but a whole lot can change in a century, and things can change very fast.

The USA bombed the hell out of Serbia to forcibly strip Kosovo from their soveriegn territory.

This seismic change in international law means we should expect the same to happen all over the world.

Crimea isn’t the last, it’s just the beginning. Actually Kosovo was the beginning.

The West and all her alliances are breaking up under the lack of US leadership and American inability to comprehend what is happening.
Russia is a strong and consistent supporter of her satellites, always there to bolster defenses while the US waffles and threatens economic sanctions all the time.
All bluster and no credible threat equals a “Paper Tiger”.

For the West, and especially countries like Israel, it's now a “everyman for himself” scenario. The saddest part is that it looks like President Obama STILL does not have a clue...
