lamest comment get over your obsession they are deserve their status in Europe Germany has the best economy in Eurozone and Russia due to its energy,military clout has all the say on the old continent.Besides why is it always USA that must be viewed as the force of "good"Shades of Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. After the WW2 guilt fades, two of Europe's traditional bullies are back at their old desctructive alliance...
Maybe you're forgetting, the temporary alliance between the USSR (now Russia) and Germany precepitated WW2. USSR's assurance that it will not oppose it (in fact that they will join it) pursuaded Germany to invade Poland, the Soviets on the other side. The rest they say is history.lamest comment get over your obsession they are deserve their status in Europe Germany has the best economy in Eurozone and Russia due to its energy,military clout has all the say on the old continent.

French are not doing anything the Germans are the real economic powerhouse of the eurozone and if they want they can leave the Euro and return to the Deutsche Mark because their currency exchange rate was higher than Euro whereas France,Greece,Portugal,Spain if they leave the Euro and return to their original currencies their debt servicing would spiral out of control due to weak currency.Germany is playing a dangerous game one which threatens the future of NATO. Europe is already in dire straits economically Germans and French are the only ones sustaining and with Germans making a move like this at a time like this is a huge negative.
The realities of 2011 and 1945 are far different so please do not make assumptions,Germans are doing better than most of its EU counterparts if it can strengthen its position why should it not choose to do so?Maybe you're forgetting, the temporary alliance between the USSR (now Russia) and Germany precepitated WW2.

Why isn't it time to change this storylineBesides why is it always USA that must be viewed as the force of "good"
Yeah, right.France may have lobbied for harsh terms on Versailles, but the fact is that Wilson's intervention in WW1 allowed for that lopsided trial by the victors. Wilson was basically a puppet for foreign interests, putting them ahead of his own country's, just like the Sonia cabale in India.
Why should Germany continue to support the Euro and be punished for bad economies elsewhere?? Why should German and French contribution in NATO be even higher then UK or Italy?? The combination of A Euro collapse along with these long drawn out wars are a test for NATO even this may no be the catalyst a spoiler like Turkey getting closer to Islamic nations and Russia and China may even do it.French are not doing anything the Germans are the real economic powerhouse of the eurozone and if they want they can leave the Euro and return to the Deutsche Mark because their currency exchange rate was higher than Euro whereas France,Greece,Portugal,Spain if they leave the Euro and return to their original currencies their debt servicing would spiral out of control due to weak currency.

NATO is relevant only because US finances more than 75% of the costs.Europe is totally dependent on US for its security against Russia
So NATO will remain relevant .All that this new Panel would do is some counter terrorism and fighting criminals
Of course Russia will keep on emphasising that Cold war is over SO what is the use of Nato
But Europe is NOT going to forget the 40 years of the fear that Europe lived in during the Cold war
