And what exactly are they going to do to stop it? After all they didn't want to do anything with Iraq. They don't want to do anything with Iran. Or North Korea. Are they going to sit down and beg them to stop? And they will say we have done no such thing and nothing will be achieved. If you're going to make bold statements like that you should be willing to back them up. I don't see Germany doing that. Do you?
