Don't ask me but I'd guess they say they've had 65 years without a war in W Europe and in the period before we'd had two that wrecked vast swathes of the place..................
Shouldn't that read that they had two that wrecked the place, both of which started in Europe? Of course one must add that the EU received the Nobel Peace Prize for not starting a third one...yet.
Speaking as that most contemptible of all military species, a Cold War warrior, didn't NATO have something to do with that? When does it get its prize?
