International women’s day today, great, I did the washing. Nice and sunny, gets it dried lovely.
I find myself thinking what a good thing it is that I don’t have to rely on the USA for sunlight and fresh air. It’s a different matter with defence.
The Leader of the Free World announced that he will not defend his allies if they are attacked by an enemy.
To me, this rather goes against the spirit of an alliance. More to the point, it goes directly against what is written in the treaty, but then when did a fraudster ever respect a contract?
Not that any of this comes as a shock anymore. What is their strategy? Why are they deliberately driving us away?
In the next few years we will be saying, yankees go home, and that’s assuming they don’t slink away in shame by themselves first. With that the USA loses the ability to threaten Eastern Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. Either they know this and don’t care, or they don’t know.
At the same time they have prodded the EU into massive rearmament. At the end of this the EU, as an independent actor, will do as it pleases in the world and will never ask USAian permission first. This will happen. Do they realise?
They are throwing away their power and I don’t understand why.
