… deserve to be whupped upside the head with it.
While I can’t find the source article (at least not in a language I read), this reference to a planned anti-American march in Margraten, Belgium, has me shaking my head.
The demonstration on May 25 is against the US invasion of Europe in 1944-1945, against the presence of US troops in Europe, and to demand the withdrawal of those troops. It is also directed against the American soldiers buried at Margraten: they fought as conquerors, to subject Europe to American values and American interests. They deserve no honour, and certainly no gratitude. They should be reburied in the US.
The demonstration is against the Europe of the Nation States – supported by the US – and for the formation of a continental state. It is against nationalism and liberalism, and against Atlanticism – which combines both these ideologies with uncritical admiration for American society. It is also directed against the slavish attitude of the national elites in western Europe, who kneel before the American flag, and unjustly honour the American dead.
Can I just say … yeesh?
