European leaders, if they can even be called that, abandoned even the pretense of a rules based world in their eagerness to serve as obedient vassals. By supporting the blatant violation of international law in Gaza, they shattered the very principles that could have shielded them from the same fate.
Europe has actively dismantled the very institutions that could protected it from the predatory ambitions of stronger powers. By embracing "might makes right," Europe has forfeited its moral authority when the same logic is turned against it. The US will exploit the current state of European weakness mercilessly, reducing it to a dependent appendage, stripped of autonomy and dignity.
Europe stands on the precipice of its own century of humiliation that it's marching into with eyes wide open. It's is no longer a player at the table of global power, and now finds itself on the menu.
I don’t think Europe’s naked hypocrisy w/r/t Gaza really factors in to Europe’s table vs. menu status.
In the grand scheme of things I agree, the US wouldn't have respected European sovereignty either way.
