THe EU would not exist without NATO, and NATO would not exist without the US. Moreover the Euroweenies could not even muster up the force and fortitude to handle Milosevic without calling on the US to do the heavy lifting. Like all liberals, their moral superiority requires the protoction of those they look down on.

Who is looking down on whom? To insist that European countries refrain from attacking each other because of what the US might do is to cede moral superiority to America, who alone knows what may justify one to go to war. No, those who think other nations behave themselves because of a fear that we will come and spank them are positing moral superiority for themselves and projecting it onto America. Braying jingoism flows naturally from such assumptions and can be seen aplenty hereabouts.
