The Statement of Principles of the Henry Jackson Society calls, in the Chirac years, for Germany to run the single EU "defence" "capability" under overall American control. But since Sarkozy took over, Denis MacShane, in particular, has made it perfectly clear that France would do at least as well.
And now this.
A new de Gaulle is needed, to restore good conservative dirigisme in opposition to the capitalist corrosion of everything that conservatives exist in order to conserve. And, inseparably therefrom, to restore an independent French foreign policy drawing on the glorious battles against all four of German occupation, Soviet infiltration, American domination, and the unbalancing of the nascent EU by British accession.
The next Presidential Election awaits.
Sarkozy simply has to go.

But I thought that people like this simply didn't matter any more? So why is the agenda still continuing?
ReplyDeletePerhaps you were a little too early with your smug writing off of them?
I only said that they didn't matter in America any more.
ReplyDeleteI have said repeatedly that - more is the pity, and mostly or entirely for the lack of any alternative at the ballot box - they certainly do still matter in Britain, France, Germany and Italy.
And that - more is the pity, and in the absence of any ballot box at all - they are still running the European Commission.
Will the Catholic League, 99 club et al be doing anything about this?
ReplyDeleteThat depends who you mean by "et al".
ReplyDeleteI can't remember all the names - you set up about 6 different organisations when the BPA disbanded. Will they be doing anything about this?
ReplyDeleteAbout the French Presidential Election?
ReplyDeleteWell, "whatever we can", I suppose.
