While we here in Europe arm ourselves, in preparation for another glorious war.

" " We cannot complain that 340 million Americans are not ready forever to defend 450 million Europeans against 140 million Russians," he said, playing down European differences with the Trump administration. "We can dislike language and messages, but what we need to avoid really is what I call angry and chaotic divorce [with the US]. We need to go into a very rational agreement on a division of responsibilities."

That red horde coming, out for our upstanding wimen. Including some white washing of why, and how. 'Faces' and narratives ever so important in building to a war.

Not that it will matter for global warming, forests, water, soil and crops of course. Both types of wars beginnings of an extinction event. Not that this is any more important for people than saving ones face.
