I suggest that you guys nuke Brussels.
Just in case.
But could you wait till the wind's blowing east please?
Apparently so. With the new EU consttituion, they'll be able to suppress our allies, leaving Europe against us.
I think Japan would love to become more militarily active. If the Diet and Japanese people can amend their constitution, Japan could be a formidable military ally and help us counter the threat of China.
This is rather interesting. At this moment I'm preparing a paper on the simularities between the Constitution of the Confederate States of America and the EU Constitution. Very similar in tone and tenor.
The only real differences is that the CSA Constitution promulgated slavery and the EU rejoices in the rights of all man. Both rested on assumptions that reflect their society and culture. There are the masses and an elite, the one born to be led and unequipped to decide great issues and the other destined by birth and breeding to lead. In such a world, the greatest tyranny, was the will of a majority that does not, and perhaps can not, grasp the stakes raised by issues of state.
As I said, very interesting.
"The good thing about the European constitution is that with it the United Kingdom will not be able to support the United States in a future Iraq."
with its storied history, i just dont believe that the UK will forfeit its rights to another body. i dont believe that a union with such a diverse set of beliefs and backgrounds could ever survive as one. too many countries have too many different interests in europe.
Since there will be single European foreign policy, they should only get 1 vote in the UN and NATO
If push REALLY came to shove, and it was the US vs the EU (assuming the US was right, as usual), I'm pretty sure the EU would fracture along Anglo lines, and perhaps with smaller "new Europe" countries coming along as well.
Yes, much like a flea threatening an elephant with rape.
There is a lot more to it than we think. They have been lining up against tyhe US and with our help. This is all to establish the New World Order. The disarming of the US Citizens and the destruction of our Constutional Republic.
The Hate Crimes Laws are nothing more than the implementation of the Values set forth in the European Socialist Manefesto. They undermine our Gurantee of Freedom of Speech by the Constitution. The Hate Crimes were put into law to do just that. We have the right to Hate just as we have the right to Love. The Constitution of the United States is slowly but surely being replaced with the Socialist Version of the European Constitution, read it for yourself:

WHY IS AMERICA NEGOTIATING AWAY HER SOVEREIGNTY?

I would like to know if a right to secede from the Union is explicitly stated in this Constitution.
The US Constitution did not have this, and the consequences were not pretty.
I wonder who is going to determine the common security policy. Brussels Eurocrats? Majority vote among countries? If it is a voting mechanism, France may sometimes have to support policies that they don't like as well.
...French Green politician Noel Mamère put it best in the course of an interview last week: "The good thing about the European constitution is that with it the United Kingdom will not be able to support the United States in a future Iraq."
To Mamere what happens in Iraq is not important. What is important is that he has a veto on it, whatever it is.
We are likely to vote "No" to this constitution. The constitution is a dead letter, put together by corrupt former French President, Valerie Giscard d'Estaing. If you want some idea of how corrupt he was, Google him in reference to Jean-Bédel Bokassa, diamonds and the Central African Republic.
The French can keep this nonsense to themselves.
