MERKEL’S “GOING THEIR OWN WAY”

This was the objective. To force europe to take responsibility for defense costs, end USA subsidy, and reduce USA entanglements. Anglos still serve as the primary western defense, with all other nations supplying only token participation. Most of us want to drastically reduce our ‘interference’ after failures in the middle east. And it appears that the world having recovered from its experiment with communism and socialism is returning to convention: a balance of regional powers. And there is nothing we can do about it other than an organized withdrawal so that opportunistic power vacuums are not created that only increase risk. While we bore the postwar cost of combatting communism, political islam has replaced political communism this time adding immigration, and ‘the great migration’ of the third world is not something we can bear the costs of, having lost our economic advantage now that the rest of the world has abandoned communism which gave us such an economic and therefore military advantage. … So yes, (a) this is the administration’s strategy, which was stated during the campaign. (b) angela is running for reelection and is under serious threat so she is saying “europe needs a leader and I am the person to do it.” So as far as I know, this is the goal the administration is seeking. And all the ‘drama’ around it, is necessary since our previous efforts have all failed. So the administration (trump) is making it impossible for them to skate on paying their fair share both monetarily, in leadership, and in readiness. Americans have proven ourselves incompetent on the world stage because of our utopianism. Everyone in the world knows that. The best way to restore competence is to reduce the scope of one’s efforts.
