Merkel says EU cannot rely on US and Britain any more
.Germany’s chancellor, Angela Merkel, has warned that the EU could no longer completely depend on Britain and the US and “must take its fate into its own hands”.
Faced with a western alliance divided by Brexit and Donald Trump’s presidency, Merkel told an election rally in Munich on Sunday: “The times in which we could completely depend on others are on the way out. I’ve experienced that in the last few days. We Europeans truly have to take our fate into our own hands.”
While Germany and Europe would strive to remain on good terms with the US and Britain, “we have to fight for our own destiny”, Merkel went on. Special emphasis was needed on warm relations between Berlin and the new French president, Emmanuel Macron, she said.

Three months after President Trump abruptly fired half of the nation’s 93 United States attorneys, following the resignations of the other half, he has yet to replace a single one.
It’s bizarre — and revealing — that a man who called himself the “law and order candidate” during the 2016 campaign and spoke of “lawless chaos” in his address to Congress would permit such a leadership vacuum at federal prosecutors’ offices around the country. United States attorneys are responsible for prosecuting terrorism offenses, serious financial fraud, public corruption, crimes related to gang activity, drug trafficking and all other federal crimes.
The so-called Arab NATO under Saudi leadership will not enhance or augment America’s anti-terrorism fight. This aspirational Gulf grouping—much like its miniature version, the Gulf Cooperation Council—is directed against Iran, designed to preserve authoritarian rule, and dedicated to the preservation of family rule in the Gulf Arab states at the expense of their peoples’ liberty and human rights. It’s also a bonanza for American and Western manufacturers of arms and war materiel. If the bloody and hopeless Saudi war in Yemen is any indication, the “Arab NATO” aims to challenge Iran and perhaps drag it into war with Sunni Islam, as defined and protected by Saudi Arabia. Nor will it contribute to regional stability and security because of its tangential interest in countering violent Sunni extremism.
The United States should not be duped into supporting such a regional arrangement just because of potentially hefty arms sales. Taking sides in the perennial sectarian feud between Sunni and Shia Islam or between Saudi Arabia and Iran is, in the long run, inimical to American national security and interests in the Islamic world. Successive American presidents since Dwight Eisenhower have wisely pursued policies in the Persian Gulf region that promoted rapprochement, not conflict, between Iran and its important neighbor on the Arab littoral of the Gulf. That was the underpinning of the “security belt” in the Gulf from the 1950s to the late 1970s and should remain so today.
Amazon, under the Post’s new owner, Jeff Bezos, recently secured a $600 million contract from the CIA. That’s at least twice what Bezos paid for the Post this year. Bezos recently disclosed that the company’s Web-services business is building a “private cloud” for the CIA to use for its data needs.
Critics charge that, at a minimum, the Post needs to disclose its CIA link whenever it reports on the agency. Over 15,000 have signed the petition this week hosted by RootsAction.
We have a major military base in Qatar that the Qataris could close tomorrow if they wanted to. And Trump is antagonizing them for what ? To please Our Friends The Saudis ?
All the Saudis had to do was flatter the US President, and he swung their way in an incredibly destructive way — this, without consulting his own national security leadership, and indeed by undercutting them, and indeed by making fools of them. The recklessness is stunning — and frightening. There is no foreign policy stability at the pinnacle of the US government. The word of the Defense Secretary and the Secretary of State is worthless in foreign capitals. What matters are the spontaneous tweets of an President disconnected from a realistic sense of responsibility for his office and the security of the nation he leads.
Sooner or later, Mattis, Tillerson, and H.R. McMaster are going to have to resign to protect their own integrity. And then what ?

“We underscore that states that sponsor terrorism risk falling victim to the evil they promote,” claimed Trump.
