Re: EUEUEUEUEU power ''shift'' from Brussels to Berlin evident in 2013

Brief explanation: Brussels, in a miltarily powerless country, was emblematic of the post-WWII fantasy of the New Europe, independent of the old power centers. Really, though, this new Europe was propped up by the U.S. and the Cold War.

Obama has said explicitely that Europe should be more responsible for itself, so now power there is shifting to where it really exists. Everybody get ready to sing!!: "Deutschland, Deutschland, Über Alles…"

Might also remember Arthur Godfrey's old theme song...?
