Sarkozy Threatens With War If Euro Fails

Tyler Durden's picture




At least the altitude, but certainly not attitude, challenged French president has finally jumped the shark when it comes to fire and brimstone pronouncements of mutual assured destruction:

  • SARKOZY "END OF EURO WOULD MEAN END OF EUROPE, END OF PEACE"  - BBG

Or... it would mean the end of the current generation of crony, corrupt, and criminally stupid leaders. Because last we checked, the Euro just celebrated its 10th birthday (with a vast majority wishing said anniversary had never occurred), and Europe was quite "war free" in the days before the globalist wet dream currency. But what do we know.

Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war.

"The military order Havoc! was a signal given to the English military forces in the Middle Ages to direct the soldiery (in Shakespeare's parlance 'the dogs of war') to pillage and chaos."

1954...

Dien Bien Ph... after days of fighting, the French military base was surrounded on all sides. Then France asked for US support. Eisenhower was ready to give them direct military help, and they had a plan, called Vulture, that would allow 4 nukes to be dropped on Vietmin positions.

The only thing needed for the US to go ahead with this plan : another french ally would need to enter the war. Nobody else did, so the US didn't went in and nukes weren't dropped on Vietnam.

Thank God Eisenhower wasn't a nut... US nuking Vietnam like it was no big deal would have probably created a trend that would have resulted in nuclear war.

Yay Eisenhower, bitchez!

Sarkozy will lose to the socialist (at least that is what the polls show at the moment). The market has paid zero attention to this prospect, also the socialist candidate (Francois Hollande) has stated over and over again he will put France first and will not play ball with Merkel. Once the markets take all of this into account (prob in March) expect hyper volitality to make a comeback.

Thanks for the link. Jokes about unused French rifles are funny but here's something from the link to make you think:

On the strategic level, France is a powerful independent actor. With 80% of its electricity generation coming from nuclear power, its industrial and residential infrastructure is invulnerable to gas disruptions – be it Russian “energy blackmail” or Ukrainian intransigence. The country is underpopulated relative to the rest of Western Europe. France possesses Europe’s sole fully-autonomous military-industrial complex, producing the whole panoply of weapon classes from helicopter carriers to fighter jets; it has substantial power projection capabilities; and its extensive nuclear infrastructure supports the world’s third largest strategic nuclear stockpile, the bulk of its 300 warheads mounted on MIRVed SLBM’s held on four ballistic missile submarines.

Yes he did.  And had everyone's balls in his fist, to keep the peace.  Peace lasted as long as he did.

Moreso because the US started implicitly guaranteeing support to any Jugo states that would leave the Federation.  Started giving money, guns, aid to the ultra-right wing nationalists like Tudjman and Izetbegovic, both Nazi sympathizers.  Same as with Libya, NATO can always find some rebel for hire to play the "freedom fighter", while the NATO bombs do the real fighting.

Jugo's sin was the same as Lybia, a desire to organize its resoureces and finances differently than the neo-liberal/conservative model of free market debt serfdom.  Now all the former Jugo republics are in total debt slavery, weak and divided.

Does France, after three wars involving Germany, feel the Euro Zone was finally to be the peacetime harness on the growth potential of the German people?

If no Euro Zone, does Sarkozy now mean to turn again to Versailles?

Phillipp Bagus wrote a book on the French hopes for the euro as a harness for Germany. Here’s a  quote from a critical review of the book by David Howden:

“Philipp Bagus outlines how a post-war France constructed a powerful political plan to centralize control over a unified European future. In fact, as Bagus explains in chapter 5, during the hope-filled days of German reunification, several deals were struck which placed the German state at the mercy of its French neighbors. As Helmut Kohl’s own chief foreign policy advisor relayed to a French journalist just three weeks after the Berlin Wall fell: ‘[T]he German Federal Government [is] now in a position that it [has] to accept practically any French initiative for Europe.’

From Bagus: The Euro has succeeded in serving as a vehicle for centralization in Europe and for the French government’s goal of establishing a European Empire under its control—curbing the influence of the German state.

Somewhat might want to let Sark know that EURO staying as is, is also going to cause the end of peace, unless tossing molotov cocktails at law enfourcement is considered peaceful in the EU.

Buy hey at least the bankers will get another couple of years of bonuses.

When in doubt toss out War, Hitler, and the Holocaust. Tie them into LEH 2.0 and job loss and PUFF: we have a MAD statment from yet another desperate politician.

Sakrozy has no idea what he is saying or doing. He has absolute incapacity to deal with such issues. In any case he is a politician like the rest of the EuroGOATS.

 

You know why EU doesnt have a Rating Agency ?? lol because this RA will be governed by stupid politicians !!

so who is fighting who in this post Euro war exactly? I mean are they just going to pile hockey sticks and choose sides that way, or will it be skins vs shirts or will they just nominate the French and the Germans as team captians and do draft picks from there?or is this going to be a every country for themselves straight up Euro deathmatch, no teams at all?

everybody in Europe has a grudge against everybody else so this could be a real mess.

Looks like the man is taking his play book out of the us manual. If the bankers don'tget what they want threaten the world will end.  It's such an alteration of history. the ends of currency unions often end in war because self interested parties have spent all the resources to keep it going and ruined the lives of those they live under. So war is required by the populace to get out of the union. I really hate these 'elites"

Isn't the guys brother a banker somewhere?

Sarkozy is not a Frenchman; he is a cog in the worldwide power grab by international bankers to override the constitutions and parliaments of sovereign countries.

It was Sarkozy, then president of the European Union and point man for the European bailout, who on September 26, 2008, called for a new international monetary system--the ultimate grab by the international financiers for all the world’s financial marbles.

And, yes, Sarkozy's brother, Olivier Sarkozy, is Managing Director and Head of the Global Financial Services Group at The Carlyle Group.

Sarkozy believes sanctions on Iran “would force Iran to negotiate.” 

RAANAN ELIAZ, former Director at the Israeli National Security Council and consultant on European-Israeli Affairs, wrote May 8, 2007, in “Sarkozy’s Jewish Roots “ in The Australian Jewish News, “many expect Sarkozy’s presidency to bring a dramatic change not only in France’s domestic affairs, but also in the country’s foreign policy in the Middle-East…  Sarkozy shared much common policy ground with former Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu (Netanyahu resumed control of the Israeli government in March 2009)."
