From John Ward - The Slog -
I must say, I think we of the School Leaver tendency in the Brussels Academy 6th Form have missed a trick thus far on the real trade deficit from which the EU suffers: the War and Peace import/export paradigm.
It’s actually a very simple calculation to make, by asking four questions:
  1. How many wars in Europe have we stopped?
  2. How much war have we imported?
  3. How much war have we started?
  4. How much war have we exported?
The answer to Q 1 is easy: none. After 1949 (when the USSR got its own bomb) war with the Soviets was a non-starter because of mutually assured destruction (MAD), and non-nuclear invasion of Western Europe by the USSR was deterred by the US nuclear presence. Following the Soviet collapse, several wars followed in quick succession as a result: the Yugoslav splintering started the Bosnian War (1992 – 1995). The same cause triggered the Kosovo War (1998-1999), starting a third wave of unrest in Kosovo during 2004 and only ending with an uneasy peace in 2013. NATO and US diplomacy did 95+% of the peace-making: the EU failed to influence any outcomes or stop the conflicts.

Q 2

Just seen that the 3rd terrorist from the Brussels attack has been released due to lack of evidence. Despite being pictured with the others terrorists as they are about to blow themselves up. That right there should be reason enough for everyone to vote out of Europe.

Mind decided.

So a man was arrested for looking like a terrorist, but it wasn't him so he has been released but because of that I should vote to leave Europe? If Europe decided to arrest every Muslim would you then vote to stay in?

We are in Europe full stop! Is this a WUM?

It is EU membership that is being voted on!
 
Just curious as to why one innocent Muslim released from custody should lead to an eu exit, you haven't posted about anyone else being released without charge have you?

Sounds like you have some kind of religious chip on your shoulder pal. I said that a terrorist, who was with 2 other terrorists, who blew themselves up has been released back into society. Who cares if they were Muslim, they could have been Martian for all I know / care.

I haven't posted about anyone else not being released from charge, what's your point?
