French leaderene, Emmanuelle Macron has called for the creation of a special EU army, presumably because the secular European superstate can't rely on evil nationalist countries, like the US, for defense.
Well said Emmanuelle, about time someone issued a patriotic call to arms! But what will the EU army look like? Maybe it'll look like Germany's defense minister.
Or Holland's.
Or Spain's.
Then there's France herself.
The enemy is trembling. For what it's worth, I reckon an all arms US battle group could take out Europe in maybe a fortnight, or sooner.
Feel free to disagree,

The EU Defense Minister's web-site has simulations of hypothetical EU Military Operations in Asia and Africa.
The Germans are referring to this EU policy as Weltpolitik - 'World Politics'- a term originally coined by the Kaiser.
We have NATO to defend Europe from Russia so the EU's military is intended for Operations outside of Europe.
A European Empire is being openly discussed across the Channel.
I suspect that they'll arm the million military age Muslim men who invaded and rely on them for protection. What could be wrong with that?
The blood of Charles Martel was bred out of the French gene pool and it's not coming back anytime soon.
As to the defense ministers, they'd be a lot more fun at a Summit meeting than the old men who used to have the jobs. Rock on!
Some rather attractive defense ministers here, especially the Dutch one. I think I'd rather have a Maggie Thatcher or Golda Meir running things in that department however.

Anon, I find that somehow sinister, as well as a bit ridiculous. Imagine, the bold transsexual armies of the EU marching forth to enforce Pride rallies and Amazon microchips in Das Welt.
But seriously, it seems as though the hated Orangeman's thrown a bit of wrench in that particular monkey wheel. And I tell you this, I stand against a European Empire, as it now stands, to say nothing of its US equivalent.
LL, I can imagine the Muslim Euro War Horde and I can also imagine a new Martel, but perhaps not from the Old World.
Then there's the Defense Ministers. I like the Spanish one! Don't know why, just do. Maybe the DLC needs an Hon. Regimental Colonel? That'd be Melania, of course.
Jim, they're made to strike terror into the nearest Pride parade, because they're WOMEN. Powerful use of 4 Gen asymmetric warfare, eh? But let's see how the EU Army plays out. I'm not betting the rainbow monkey on any kind of success.
The thing about Europe's Defense Ministers, WSF, is that they inspire martial valour.
