Pinko Schroeder and Old Europe get rubbished by voters in Germanys 2 important provincial election
The New EU applicant countries of Eastern Europe are showing admirable support for the USA and NATO in the coming battle with IRAQ. This weeks important election defeats for Schroeder spell the end of 'Old Europe' as Donald Dunsfield calls it.
Pinko Schroder gets his answer from the German public,he now has a choice to support the USA in its just war against the Iraq or pay the price and be tumbled from power. Bertie Ahern has said that he fully agrees with the sentiments expressed in the recent letter signed by the new Eastern European EU applicant countries supporting the USA. Unfortunately he was not consulted in time to sign it. This letter gives the 2 fingers to Old Europe (Germany) and shows the way the balance of power has now swung towards the USA. It vindicates Berties decision to make sure that the Eastern EU countries came on board as soon as possible. They are making their presence felt already, expect much more to come in relation to Nato and defense and neutrality etc
