You can't seriously believe Europe is defenseless without America. Germany, the UK and France are among the most powerful militaries in the world, with economies that trump Russia, and enough nuclear weapons to flatten it a hundred times over.
- renw0rp 5y agoThe countries you mentioned are as prepared for war as was France in 1939/1940
- oblio 5y agoFrance was prepared, they just messed up the strategy. But they had the equipment, the manpower, the army was mobilized entirely after 1939, they had battle plans, etc.
- rjsw 5y agoGermany doesn't have a powerful military or its own nuclear weapons.
- konschubert 5y agoThe German military has issues ordering guns that shoot straight, I doubt they can project any kind of deterrence against, say, nuclear threats.
- rblatz 5y agoAnd add up all their militaries and they are still dwarfed by the US military.
