Germanys defence minister has confirmed that a united EU military is becoming a reality, after her ally and Chancellor Angela Merkel backed Emmanuel Macrons call for a real European army.
Europes army is already taking shape, Ursula von der Leyen wrote in an opinion piece for Handelsblatt on Thursday.
Germany and France are the driving forces in defense, Ms von der Leyen boasted, adding that Were moving even further ahead with our close partner France after the two countries agreed to sign a new Elysèe Treaty which, amongst other efforts to, in effect, merge aspects of the two countries, includes common defense.
....
A common European defence force was labelled a dangerous fantasy by remain campaigners during the 2016 Brexit referendum, after Eurosceptics had warned that continued membership of the bloc would entail being pulled into an EU army.
....
German Chancellor Angela Merkel enthusiastically backed her French globalist ally, saying, What is really important, if we look at the developments of the past year, is that we have to work on a vision of one day creating a real, true European army, with Brussels bureaucrats expressed their delight that France and Germany were taking the lead.

This assessment is based on what, exactly?
Not a good thing to underestimate one’s enemies.
It’s just meant to suppress the indigenous European population. It doesn’t need to be a real military.
Good. Now dismantle all our European bases and bring our servicemen and women home.

Long past time.
Europe: Defending itself to the last drop of American blood.

Not just Europe.
I’m not taking this seriously until they invade Poland.
We already know, Germany.
We saw your EU flagged armored cars in France.
Why trade with them when between Alberta and America, we have way more than enough and then some? To hell with S.A.
They were there to protect Europe from themselves.
So less than 2 years ago people in the UK who said they were worried about being dragged toward an “EU army” were ridiculed as making stuff up..... yet now the “EU army” is becoming a reality (however inept and ineffectual it may be).
More reason for “hard Brexit” NOW.
As time advances, so is precariousness of natives’ safety and security, due to their governments treachery.
The traitors will need an army to protect themselves from their subjects.
Resist now, or perish.
Europes army. What a sick joke.

Then they go to deploy their forces outside their borders...
How do we move our army?
How do we supply our army once it’s moved?
How do we evacuate our wounded?
Who’s going to actually do the fighting?
Umm...
That’s a pretty tortured understanding of Washington’s words. “will forever keep at a distance those painful appeals to arms with which the history of every other nation abounds,
He is simply stating that we should not shrink back when challenged as we soon were with Barbary pirates interfering with our trade, or Brits interfering with our shipping and kidnapping sailors. He was the polar opposite of the idea that we should occupy Europe or engage in wars of sport and convenience worldwide.
You are living in 1898, imagining that if we do not grab some empire, that the Euros will. The correct interpretation of Washington is that everyone should know we will fight IF our actual interests were challenged. But that we would never engage in wars on behalf of European nations.
Europe is no friend of the USA. This includes the Brits. All of them have one goal and one goal only. Use the USA to be the muscle to achieve EU policy goals. This explains the Balkans, Libya, Syria, Ukraine, etc.
Germany will supply the guns. France will supply the white flags.
If Europeans think we're going to shed blood again to save their butts from Germans they need to 'think again'... cause it's NOT gonna happen.
So the reassertion of the Monroe Doctrine is not a priority, for example?
The EU getting its own military is against the USA’s interests specifically; this has been the case ever since the early twentieth century. Every iteration of a united Europe was always with an anti-US agenda.
The USA was not designed to assert its own empire, but to keep others at bay.
BTW, thanks for the Obama-ite view of Britain.
“Its just meant to suppress the indigenous European population. It doesnt need to be a real military.”
Exactly. Russia has shown no intent to invade Europe despite neocon and defense industry fantasies. Their army is less than 1/10th the size it was in the 80s. They basically don’t want to be screwed with. So you get rumbles as NATO expands right up to it’s border.
The EU army is intended to ensure EU member nation compliance with Brussels. The eastern members such as Hungary, Poland, Romania, the Czech republic, Greece, and Italy are not fully obedient these days.
This is Germany wanting a force with a legal right to go anywhere inside the EU it pleases and enforcing Brussels rules.
Its a constabulary force.
EU socialist governments are suicidal.
They’ve just signed onto the UN Replacement Population Kalgeri Migration plan, putting themselves ever further in cultural and economic existential crisis.
Europe is finished.
