Because more than a half-million Americans have died in two European wars of the past century, we must hope that this government-mandated heaven works.

If it doesn't work how many more American lives will be lost on European soil after they beg us for help again?

None, hopefully...

- I give most of Western Europe 5 years and France...3.

I personally do not believe that Europe will seek or accept American deliverance again. They are so steeped in their defensive arrogance and so conditioned by their fears of having to confront their inadequacy as a community.

Rather, I expect the trash in charge to stumble into some kind of lame compromise position, fighting a sporadic rearguard action with the advancing islamist domination, and resulting in a long, dwindling, episodically violent, and economically emasculated twilight of European culture.

I do not expect there will be a decisive battle in Europe, as there will be in the Middle East with Israel and her enemies. The euros will submit, not with a bang but a whimper. We have seen the future, the last two weeks.
