Lesenswerte Analysen zum Innenleben der EU und dem Denken ihrer Brüsseler Mandarine finden sich auf diesem Blog. Zum Beispiel die drei großen europäischen Illusionen: “If we are nice to the world, then the world will be nice to us. If we leave radical leaders alone, then nothing will happen to us. Mentally, we are preparing for our retirement. Nothing new, please! Will prosperity be sustained? We’ll worry about that later.The best protection against globalisation is isolation.” (Fritz Bolkestein, niederländischer EX-EU-Kommissar).
Der Journalist und Ex-Komissionsmitarbeiter Derk Jan Eppink hat ein Buch über die EU geschrieben und sieht in der europäischen Rhetorik und Macht-Konstruktion Parallelen zur Sowjetunion: “The Soviet Union was administered by a political elite. So is the European Union. The Soviet Union saw itself as a utopian state. The European federalists have much the same views.The Soviet Union had party ideologists. The European Union has legal counselors. The Soviet Union wanted to create a viable society through a series of official procedures. So does the European Union. The Soviet Union had apparatchiks, the European Union has mandarins. The Soviet Union wanted to surpass the United States. The European Union has been trying to do the same thing for many years.”
