What do you think the Gilets Jaunes uproar is all about? Macron is dead meat with the very people who elected him. Dismiss Marine Le Pen at your peril. After years of marginality under her father, she has made great inroads. Le Front Nationale has a new face. Pay attention to it. The youngsters are.
Germany building an army is a joke. They are only good for peacekeeping missions with the UN wearing a blue helmet. They’re not allowed to serve in a war zone where things may get a bit hot. Germany, The Netherlands and Slovenia have how many aircraft carriers?
That doesn’t mean the person who replaces Macron gets France out from under Germany’s thumb. And the yellow vests are not about Germany’s dominance at all; none of them have mentioned that.
And again, thanks for your opinion with respect to something that Germany has done twice in the past to the world’s detriment. In both of those cases, it took a certain kind of leadership to show it off to the world, and there is no way that the current second-largest arms exporter on the planet would be incapable of it. Not to mention, our enemies have been working on aircraft-carrier-destroying technology.
