European Union nations pressed ahead Tuesday with plans to boost military cooperation as Britain vowed to oppose the creation of an EU army or headquarters.
With Britain leaving the EU, France and Germany have been spearheading moves to boost Europes capacity to run its own security operations. [ ]
We are in a very strong Franco-German relationship and we think we will be able to make significant progress before the end of the year, he said, standing alongside German Defense Minister Ursula von der Leyen.
Von der Leyen insisted that its not about a European army.

“You really think so? EU at war with Britain?”
So you have apparently been asleep the last thousand years or so? Or do you have some childlike faith that Germany and Merkel has no intent to compel others to do what they say.
“The French divisions would have the Running Man dropping his rifle on a white field as their banner.”
Based on what? The French by far had the highest deaths in WWI among all the allies. The Brits and Germans have surrendered as much or more than the French. That’s simply a fact.
In fact, in the WWII battle for France, they fought hard and the British ran away at Dunkirk, leaving the French flank totally exposed.
“And you really think it could become a hot war? “
Nooooooo.... Continental Euros have never fought the Brits. Oh wait. Its happened almost constantly for centuries. But i’m sure it’s all fine now!
Think of your alcoholic doper relative, for decades has been that way. He’s been sober for a week. He wants to borrow money and swears his drinking days are over.
“The cynic in me construes this Franco-German military alliance as an eventual Muslim Military by proxy. Prodded along by Saudi finances bribes.”
Exactly correct. While we worry ourselves silly about an Iranian bomb, or wheher the Russians want to keep their 200 year old+ base in Crimea, the moslems are taking over the governments of France, Germany, and the UK. At least two of those have full-on, turn key nuke programs.
In 10 years or less Captain Mohammed ali baba will be steering HMS Vanguard, an SSBN out to an Atlantic patrol with as many as 192 nukes on Trident IIs.
In a decade or two we will face an Islamic European power as a hostile nuclear power.
Worthy of discussion as an imminent threat. Even the UK is a risk to themselves and others as they continue to enable Sharia, especially in London.

Roger that. IF any Muzzie is given command of ANY European battle vessel, we know what's coming.
Trump's instinct (as well as Trump's) are 100% correct.
A Muzzie-influenced, partially Sharia Law compliant Franco-German alliance will very possibly use their joint military capabilities within the decade to be far more of a nuke threat than the old USSR ever was.
