In a very interesting development tonight, Germany has agreed to send Patriot missile batteries to Turkey on its own, and has recommended that NATO take over peacekeeping duties in Kabul.

I think this is an indication that Germany realizes that NATO is seriously threatened by its own actions, led by the French, of course, and is now scrambling to minimize the damage.

The French aren't cooperating, which is to be expected, and either nation can shatter the alliances that have stood the test of time for 60 years.
