#1 The U.N. and the war on terror

Oh, good. A quick read and I already know the conclusion.

#2 France, Germany, Russia and China have concluded this war could be our undoing. Hoping for that result and a corresponding reduction of our power and influence, they want no constructive part of it until there is persuasive evidence we are winning.

Bingo. Finally, some sanity injected into this debate. The only nations that we can expect to take our side are those who wish more, not less, use of American power in the world (UK, Australia, Israel) and those frontline non-muslim nations states that are directly menaced by the jihadists (India, Russia).

NATO is dead. "The West" is a meaningless phrase that ignores the fact that increasingly muslim European nations will increasingly hew to the French policy of siding with anti-US jihadists, pan-arabists, mullahs etc in the middle east.

#3 France, Germany, Russia and China have concluded this war could be our undoing.

Look how well that mentality worked for them in WWII against Hitler.
