Then there is the rhetoric: Russian aggression. Russian ambitions to recover the former Soviet Empire. Russian attempts to divide and destroy Europe. And so on.

I think Europe is already in the process of destroying itself. The beginning of its demise will be (God willing) the exit of the UK.

The Euro dictatorship has pushed its ridiculous, un-democratic ambitions for total dominance of the continent of Europe too far. We all remember what happened last time a group of people tried to impose their will on Europe right?.

Anyway my point raises a completely different subject which perhaps should be a new thread, but I have made my point about the articles comment quoted above.:)
