#1 Will all this happen before or after the paper bill for the French Foreign Ministry gets paid? Oh, I get it, this is how the bill will be paid.

#2 It's getting to the point where I don't see what the big deal about NATO is. If the Euros want to field their own "force" (whatever that is), then let 'em go. If it has a begative effect on NATO, then just dissolve NATO and call it a day. After all, the Soviet Union doesn't exist anymore, and isn't that the reason why NATO was created to start off with?

#3 With the Frogs running the EU Show its kinda hard to get excited about how they view NATO. I can see a new EU defense force as a bureaucracy every bit as effective and useful as the UN.

I agree with bomb-a-rama. Dissolve NATO, fold our tents, and go home. Europe will most likely be another Islamic shithole in a few years anyway.

#4 I would agree, but if we disslove NATO then the only place left is the UN. NATO still proves a valuable alliance between nations who have the will to use force when neccesary.

Hell, at least NATO is more effective than the UN.
