European nations are being destroyed by war and militarism, and adding to the madness, their political class and media are driving the process with ever-increasing speed.

The fate of the continent could hardly be more tragic, given that it emerged from the ashes of World War II with the hope of being a model for international peace.

Hungary’s divisive elections this week, which saw the government of Viktor Orban ousted from power, were dominated by political and financial pressures exerted by the EU leadership on Budapest owing to Orban’s steadfast rejection of Brussels’ warmongering towards Russia. Hungarians cast their vote amid turmoil caused by Brussels and the energy blackmail of the NATO-backed Kiev regime. There are concerns that other EU nations, such as Slovakia, will face a similar assault on their democratic process if they do not conform to the elite agenda of making everything about an existential confrontation with Russia.

European citizens are enduring an economic crisis that has been brought on by NATO and the EU’s proxy war with Russia. Fuel, energy, food, and other living costs are going through the roof as a direct result of war and militarism. First, the energy supplies from Russia were cut off through government-led sanctions. Now, Trump’s aggression against Iran has hit energy supplies from the Persian Gulf, leaving Europe doubly exposed.

Instead of reversing course, the European NATO states seem intent on going full throttle towards a disastrous crash. This raises fundamental questions about democratic representation. Does it even exist anymore in Europe, including Britain?

This week in Britain, there were strident calls for massive extra spending on its military budget, paid for by slashing investment in social welfare and other public services. The calls were led by a former British minister, George Robertson.

“Lord Robertson”, who is a member of Britain’s unelected House of Parliament, is also a former head of NATO (1999-2003). He has long been urging the British government to expand the military budget even though figuresshowthat Britain is spending more on so-called defense than at any time since the end of the Cold War.

In a high-profile public lecture, and with a touch of hysteria, Robertson claimed: “We are under-prepared. We are underinsured. We are under attack. We are not safe… Britain’s national security and safety are in peril.”

His bottom line: “We cannot defend Britain with an expanding welfare budget.”
