The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.
The US has declared rhetorical war on the EU
The calls from America this weekend to destroy the EU are revealing. They hate the union because it's the only thing that can keep European countries from being Russian or American vassals.

I doubt it's Russia, even if 'falling out of the 22nd floor window' fits their MO very neatly.
Mossad? As a warning about and retaliation for the S. African ICJ case against Israel?
And I very much doubt that it's a suicidal remorse for the missing Tembisa millions. That simply isn't the ANC way.

Family of Southport stabbing victim criticise plan to reveal ethnicity of suspects
Exclusive: Michael Weston King, grandfather of Bebe King, warns government against ‘kowtowing to the likes of Farage’
The family of Bebe King, one of the three girls killed in the Southport attack last year, have urged ministers to reconsider their support for disclosing the ethnicity of serious crime suspects, saying this information is “completely irrelevant” and that “the propensity to commit crime happens in any ethnicity, nationality or race”.
Bebe was six when she was murdered by 17-year-old Axel Rudakubana, a Welsh-born black Briton from a Christian family who had lived in the local area for a number of years. Continue reading...
