PUTIN: The main threat to Europe is not Russia, but the USA

Putin reads,

The danger to Europe does not come from Russia.  The main threat to Europeans is in a critical and increasingly total dependence on the United States.  In military, political, technological, ideological, and information spheres, Europe is pushed more and more on the sidelines of the global economic development, is immersed in the chaos of immigration and other acute problems, deprived of international subjectivity and cultural identity.  Sometimes it seems that the ruling European politicians and representatives of the Euro bureaucracy are more afraid to fall out of favor with Washington instead of losing the trust of their own people, own citizens.

Putin obviously would say this, but that doesn't mean he's wrong: it's painfully obvious to anyone paying attention, and I think Europeans are slowly realizing it (finally).

De Gaulle said it best: "The truth is that the Americans will end up being hated by everyone. Even by their most unconditional allies. All the dirty tricks imagined by the Americans are contradicted by events." (quoted by his confident Alain Peyrefitte in "C’était De Gaulle") François Mitterrand also said it: "France does not know it, but we are at war with America. Yes, a permanent war, a vital war, an economic war. Yes, the Americans are very tough, they are voracious, and they want undivided power over the world. It is an unknown war, a permanent war, seemingly without deaths and yet a war to the death..." (quoted by Georges Marc Benamou in "Le dernier Mitterrand")
