Precipitaing or more accurately quickening the "already-in-motion" Global Unification & Integration process, to make life easier & better for everyone on the planet, is the overall goal (which includes saving humanity from complete annihilation & destruction of course). Merging the EU with the US will obviously "check" all aberrant countries/nations (North Korea, Syria, Iran...) from doing things they shouldn't otherwise be doing, included in the mix of being checked will be the US & the EU of course. After merging the EU & the US other countries can then be "systematically integrated" as well if they so choose. The "button-up" approach of the "North American Union," that is the US merging with Canada & Mexico, is childs play & essentally "less relevant" compared to the "top-down" approach of an EU-US Merger. The one VERY important caveat/requirement to having a "fully united & fully integrated planet" is having the "right people" on top, unenlightened half-wits will not only "not do" but they will worsen the already f---ed up & despicable condition of humanity & planet earth which obvioulsy is a no no. So those impressed with and interested in bankrolling and/or contributing in other ways (i.e. ideas, media attention...) to my Global Venture you may contact me on my myspace. Thanks, Leo (a.k.a.

Yet countries who of varying size demographically, militarily, and economically, and personality-wise came together to create a union. There certainly remain internal power struggles, but the system works. The process was gradual, beginning with a trade union. <BR/><BR/>We may yet see the same thing from the Atlantic Allies, who have actually gone farther than Europe with regards to building a military union in NATO (it can be argued that defense is the last vestige of sovereignty a state is willing to give up). There is now a serious effort to create a Transatlantic Trade Union as well, endorsed at the highest levels of govenrnment on both sides of the Atlantic.<BR/><BR/>It is certainly more of a fantasy than reality that a glorious Union of the West will be created in the immediate future, but I do not rule it out.<BR/><BR/>I recently posted an article about the Balladur essay here: www.atlanticreview.org <BR/><BR/>(you may be interested in the comments)Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01150705708817372865noreply@blogger.com
