Had not thought of ...'The end of war . . .' Had not thought of it like that before. Thank you. The European Union could be (and still will be, one hopes) much more than just a vast commercial arrangement.<br /><br />Amazing how we believe that the people we elect are smart enough/moral enough/competent enough to do the jobs we give them. A few are and many aren't, but still we hope.<br /><br />A real, thoughtful political post. Well done. And just for good measure, The Pigeon and the beeches too. Very comforting to know that somewhere, someone is thinking rational thoughts, there is a dog who is in reality a queen, and there is a view like the beeches. Thank you.<br /><br />BirdAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-74510823734527518532011-12-11T18:36:25.375+00:002011-12-11T18:36:25.375+00:00An excellent post today.

Thank you for sharing your thought on this - as someone born straight after the war I am of course supportive of the idea of a Europe that will never fight another war again -we all are.aurora rabynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-17027112982728592562011-12-09T09:01:56.605+00:002011-12-09T09:01:56.605+00:00Hoping you are safe and warm.
