That would be a great opportunity for US (none / 0)

disaster capitalists. Halliburton could be called in to rebuild the fallen Europe.

And Paul Bremer is available for the decree writing tasks and I think he still has his yellow nation building boots for press conferences.

The falls would be peaceful. Nothing to rebuild but the US' international standing.

The only way to save US international standing (none / 0)

would be to immediately make it a colony of Finland.

All Europe should encourage the Finns to implement this immediately to save NATO and Syria and keep Bremer out of Paris.
