| [ARABNEWS] The European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... 's new foreign affairs chief Federica Mogherini on Saturday appealed for the establishment of a Paleostinian state, saying the world "cannot afford" another war in Gazoo. "We need a Paleostinian state -- that is the ultimate goal and this is the position of all the European Union," Mogherini said during a trip to Gazoo, devastated by its third conflict in six years. She voiced hope that Gazoo would avoid another major conflict. "It is not only the people of Gazoo that can't afford having a fourth war, all the world cannot afford this," she said. "We cannot just sit and wait. If we sit and wait it will go on for another 40 years. We have to have action now," said Mogherini, a former Italian foreign minister who recently took over from Catherine Ashton as the top EU diplomat. Sweden last month became the first EU member in western Europe to officially recognize the state of Paleostine. Asked whether the EU might do the same, Mogherini said that such a move was "not among the competences" of the 28-nation bloc. |

| #4 "An active member of the Democrats of the Left (DS), a social democratic party containing many former Communists, she soon got noticed, and specialised in foreign affairs, working particularly on ties with the US Democrat party." Sounds like she and Susan Rice ought to get along famously. |

#1  I wholeheartedly agree Ms. Mogherini. That is why I am nominating Italy as the new Paleo state. |
