The reasons for peace are:

Your role as mouthpiece for the EU is making you look increasingly out of touch with reality.
The reason for cake is because of the oven. The ingredients have nothing to do with it.
It would be amazing to believe peace was brought about by a 'thought experiment' and not one single legislative act. Leider wir muss geben Sie a chance to voice dein opinion. Even if that means ignoring the history which so many of our elders fought and died for.

Many consider nuclear weapons responsible for that. We have not only had no wars in Europe the rest of the major world powers have not had wars with other countries armed with Nukes. Also light guns, munitions & Geurilla tactics have made many wars unwinnable.
The US did Vietnam & Korea and lost both, they were terrified of Russia & China yet did not engage them is this thanks to the EU?"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

I'm not sure that Donald got the message:
Trump Says We Should 'Bomb The S*** Out of ISIS.' Media Scoff. Americans Loved It. | Daily Wire
We can probably find television footage of American presidents declaring that they'll "bomb the sh*t out of the Vietcong".I'm alright JackComment

Originally posted by vetran View Postno you suggested the EU was responsible for us not having a major war in Europe for 80 years. I pointed out there hadn't been a 'Major War' anywhere in 80 years so its unlikely the EU was totally responsible for peace as you suggested. Sorry if you didn't understand a reasonable argument.

Mind boggles when well over a million deaths amounts to 'oops sorry din't see you there'.
If Europe is like the rest of the world I suggest you need to get out more."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
