The European Union voted on Thursday to impose sanctions against those held responsible for the violence in Ukraine.

The E.U. is doing it’s best to start WWIII.

When they succeed they’ll expect Americans to die for them again.

As for that last one, they’ve been trying to do that for quite some time. They are strict AGW doctrinarians, so long as it does not apply to them personally.

The EU is extra-territorial by definition. Too many people brushed it off when Jose Manuel Barroso (EU Commission president) called the EU an “empire”; well, now it’s an in-your-face empire, and an old empire in new guise at that.

This is kind of like watching Muslims fight - I do not have a side to pull for. One other thing - FU EU would make a good bumper sticker.

“EU are beginning to exert extra-territorial jurisdiction”

Russians have been exerting extra-territorial jurisdiction for a hundred years with murderous results.
