But anyway, you show no understanding of economics or politics. WW2 a European affair?

The EU being the home of bigbrother being Evil? I beg to differ. The use of CCTV to watch every movement of the public is not really an infringement on privacy. I believe that it is like a guardian angel that watches over the public, to keep people safe.

Possible chain of events:
UK breaks ranks with US
UK adopts Euro, fully integrates with EU
All major EU nations pull out of NATO, effectively dissolving it.
OPEC, backed by military intimidation from Russia, fully adopts Euro as oil standard currency.
US suffers 911 style attack, gets justification to invade Saudi Arabia
Russia offers military assistance to all OPEC nations
Quickly spirals downward into WWIII
Remeber, if you want to be a superpower, you have to ditch morality and decency to achieve and maintain this power.
So what I am saying is most governments will always be gracious to its citizen but be tyrannical to other nation to uphold its interests.

Isolationism would have ended with the destruction of the United States. It's completely idiotic to believe that Hitler would have left an uncontrolled superpower once he controlled the rest of the world.
Economically or militarily he would have taken the US to the cleaners.

You are right in one sense but wrong in another. Yes to achieve supremacy u need to be cunning and forget about �morality and decency�, you also most live by double standards. As some writer in an article on the PNAC website wrote �in order to survive one most follow the rules in his home but when he goes out in the jungle he most play by the rules of the jungle.(double standards).
Where u are wrong however is that a strong nation always has the backing of its people and examples include Rome where the people where interested in its greatness, the states of America also have the backing of its people which lead to there rise and Britain having most of its colonies backing it in the hour of glory.
It would thus be foolish to throw away such virtues as �morality and decency� when applying it to the citizens.
So what I am saying is most governments will always be gracious to its citizen but be tyrannical to other nation to uphold its interests.
