EUOBSERVER / COMMENT
Europe needs leadership Yet what Europe does need,
clearly, is leadership. Leadership that is capable of forging a
transnational consensus and commanding respect among the
electorates of member states.
This can't be other than political: the notion that somehow if
we 'listen' to 'citizens' we shall miraculously find them saying
the same (or at least not incompatible) things is clearly
preposterous.
As is the idea, seemingly prevalent in some quarters of the
Commission, that the good souls of Europe have locked away
inside them some 'vision' of a European future, which
politicians at the national level have missed.
For a moment in the blissful dawn of the Tony Blair's European
Parliament speech it did seem as though he really might succeed
in providing this necessary political leadership. Clearly that
was not to be.
But without such a coherent vision, whether it comes from a
member state politician or from a European Parliamentarian, the
European project risks falling victim to the vacuum that is its
empty centre.
It would then simply and slowly disintegrate, with smaller
budgets and reduced powers, into the type of Organisation of
European States advocated by the Czech President, Vaclav Havel,
and others. If this is the democratic will, so be it, but Europe
deserves better than for this to happen by default.
We can only hope that cometh the hour, cometh the man - or
indeed woman - someone who will not only advocate reform but
deliver it as well. Who indeed will succeed in drawing this
sword from the stone? That is the real question for 2006.

Biblical prophecy, which is often history recorded in advance by
our Great Creator God, the Superior and Supreme Being of the
Universe (who far surpasses mortal capabilities), not only
declares there shall be a United States of Europe, the final
revival of the unholy Roman Empire of the German Nation as
Herbert W.
Armstrong warned, but gives us the details that it shall
be composed of both weak and strong elements that don't share
the right chemistry to form a long lasting relationship, and
that such a corrupt cohesion will last only 3 1/2 years.
The EU will ultimately consist of a core group, the top ten
nations, who will serve as the nucleus the other member
states circle their wagons around, especially when threatened
by an Islamofascist leader and his confederation to the
south.
Watch for the Bavarian pope to get more lively about Europe's
direction and seek to influence public opinion to support the
Vatican's elect to lead Europe in the direction they feel
Providence has chosen. The pope will powerfully back
their man with lying signs and wonders, having the masses
eating out of his hand, and declare such "miracles" are proof
that Providence has chosen this hour to reveal such a man to
save Europe and lead the world. The pope will bring the EU
body to life! The emperor will revive the Roman empire!
