Big deal, it's not really in use. If you really want to stick it to the US refuse to allow the TSA access to your passenger data. Refuse to give the IRS financial information. Toss out the entire US military from their bases. Then maybe I will think there is real outrage.

All about the economic impact losing all the US military spending in that region would cause. Turns out stationing 50,000+ troops in Germany is good for the local economy... if they tossed them out, it would be a massive demonstration of seriousness.
