We're in agreement Herrod, for me specifically wrt a unified political will to use a notional euro army. One need only look at the paralysis in Europe's capitals during the 90s with genocide occurring in Europe itself. How much hand wringing occurred till Clinton forced the issue. To be clear, I think a Euro army would be superbly trained and led but would lack the cohesion needed, and of course would be logistically inadequate.
One can dream though.
