The recently unveiled U.S. National Security Strategy has liberal heads turning over this one priority: "Promoting European Greatness."
Europe’s problems cannot just be attributed to “insufficient military spending and economic stagnation.”
The continent is facing “civilizational erasure” should it continue to embrace practices and transnational bodies that “undermine political liberty and sovereignty, migration policies that are transforming the continent and creating strife, censorship of free speech and suppression of political opposition, cratering birthrates, and loss of national identities and self-confidence,” the Trump administration writes.
The U.S.’ attitude in this report was not “you, Europe, should have done this.” It’s more like, “we should be brothers,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”
“You, Europe, is the foundation of the West. Greece. Rome. The Pope. The Renaissance. The Enlightenment. All of this majestic culture came from you. And we are an offshoot, an offspring of it. And we wanna partner with you. And we wanna be equals with you. So, please, can you just consider stopping the censorship, opening up discussion, and maybe reassessing your energy, your military, your immigration issues, and policies. And get back in the game with us in a 50/50 fashion.”
