Merkel in her utter contempt for WWI soldiers takes the opportunity on Remembrance Day to denounce nationalism and announce the rise of a European army specifically stating to use it against the US.

We have been here before folks, Germany tried to expand and dominate in two world wars, the US met them both times and with the allies beat them back.

Have we learned anything?

Have we learned anything? Yes.

Big buisiness will make money out of both sides.

Are you predicting a new coke/fanta war?

Germany is Militarily and Politically spent.
It has more important industries to get ahead with and be more 'European'.

Next is France's turn. It too must give up the empowerment of Military and Politics to become more 'European'. Sadly for the French, every European nation will take a step back and leave them out in front to deal with the last Moslem onslaught in the name of their Empire: Islam.

...after which, it will be Italy's turn, then finally Britain.

As all (4) four major European points of the Cross let go of Religion, Politics and Military to become 'more' European and progressive for a more positive future.
