Is the Euro part of some larger strategic plan to restore Europe's great power status? If so, it's a safe bet that the full plan is known only to a handful, several key officials and perhaps a Rothschild. And it's an even safer bet that these folks aren't talking, unless maybe to protect the true dimensions of the plan with a bodyguard of lies. But speculative as its existence may be, the strategy outlined here relates the Euro to Europe's two other greatest challenges.

To be a major power in the coming century, Europe must do more than make a success of its new currency. It must also: (1) create a modern military and defense force capable of effective action in major matters independent of American desires or support; and (2) reform public welfare programs that already impose a too heavy financial burden, and that include unfunded pension obligations which will become insupportable with the aging of the general population in the years ahead. See Peter G. Peterson, "Graying Dawn: The Global Aging Crisis," Foreign Affairs, Jan./Feb. 1999, pp. 42, 48-49.

What's your theory on the news today that Yugoslav police arrested 5 agents of the French intelligence services for plotting Milosevic's assasination and several sucessful assasinations over the last years?

Just curious.

And what about the recent sudden discovery of the Europeans that they must have a force to deal with Kosovo like problems INDEPENDENT of Nato...The stupid US foreign policy "diplomats" are even losing the always reliable (up to now) British now...
