Let's assume the EU spent 2% of its GDP on the military, that would be EUR 300 billion+ which is not a bad budget. With a sensible military equipment program and about 1.5 million soldiers, the EU could be a real military power which could kill ISIS on its own without the need for US involvement.
When was the last time anyway that EU states didn't act together in war? Iraq? And wouldn't it have been better to not invade Iraq?
fuck off hans, my grandfather fought for you after the king switched side and look what happened.

The problem of creating such army is what is going to happen when there is a war where you have to mobilize a huge chunk of your resources to one place.
Something tell me that ig the command of the troops is German, the soldiers that may get the worst missions ( cannon fodder) will not be german.
Same if the guy is polish, british or whateaver.

I guess all military units would be of mixed nationality. Several EU states already allow any EU national to serve in that particular state's military. Germany wants to open its military up for all EU nationals as well.
At some point, there will just be mixed EU national armies, why then not merge them?

It would have the same problems as the Warsaw Pact. Complicated hierarchy that ultimately puts one nation on top of the others, order have to be created/ issued in multiple languages, you will have a massive disparity in quality between units of different nations. Plus in the EU's case, many things are not standardized like firearms, armor, or aircraft so there's little interchangeability.
Ryder Clark
>Aren't we a bit a head of ourself here, Soros? The official terminology is EU states.
James Cook
>apart from the French and British ones are dog shit. Is that why Germany had more soldiers deployed abroad than France in the last 15 years? Is that why Denmark is attacking ISIS in Syria? Is that why Italy is fighting the good fight against Islam? Is that why the Netherlands are training Kurds?

I hope the Brits leave the EU as soon as possible and Europe then starts to united in earnest. We need to fucking start to secure our EU borders - regardless of all the memes, even Merkel says so and said so in the past, we need to secure the EU borders and we need to bomb ISIS and train Kurds and give them more MILAN missiles and Dushka ammunition.

Europe is less white and less Christian.
Romans conquered much of Europe under a single identity.
Christian Europe would ally under the flag of the Vatican for defense against Islam in the Crusades.
Roman Catholicism supplied the common tongue, Latin. Vatican infrastructure acted as non-partisan entity.
For the blacks, Muslim Arabs... this history means shit to them. They aren't European ethnics or aboriginals.
Europe is gonna lose this "way" of doing things.
Europe is too liberal and will become too non-white to form a cohesive, united force.

This britbong's sentiments aren't wrong. Why would France relinquish control (or part of it) over their own army to some unelected bureaucrats in Brussels? If you want stronk army to order around why don't you spend the money yourself Hans? Last time I checked you weren't anywhere near to spending 2% of your GDP on military and yet here you are preaching about how everyone needs to spend mo money on military and of course relinquish control of it to (let's be honest here) German controlled EU.
Eli Carter

This. They are not a conventional fighting force, they are a terrorust organization not army. They are a collective body hiding in Islam and using civilians as their cover.

Levi Barnes
>Do you have any argument for it?
Efficiency and power projection. You don't need thousands of Generals and parallel military structures with little in terms of deployable forces. What you need is ONE structure and a shitton of deployable units.
Not to mention that if all EU nationals could serve in one EU military, people would end up more motivated, as the power level of the military increases and with it the chance to show their skills on a global stage. Nothing is worse for a military pilot or a special forces guy or a combat infantryman or an aritelleriy specialist etc. than serving in a small, incompetent military when people in the US army are allowed to actually fight bloody wars.
Ian Price
>which could kill ISIS on its own without the need for US involvement. The west doesn't need to intervene for Isis to be removed. We just need to stop supporting them and Assad will stomp them out with aide from Russia.

So what you're saying is that every soldier is some kind of psychopath that enlists only so he can kill people and the bigger the war the better? Also apparently people would be more willing to die for EU bureaucrats rather than their countries.

It is not a mental illness to like war if you are a soldier. It's your job, why the hell would you not want to hone your skills in the field? Not to mention that combat pay is decent and you can advance in the ranks if you are a good soldier and get medals for valor.

And what language are you going to speak> The military is only effective if it can act quickly, waiting for translations isn't acting quickly. English? Good luck getting the French to agree to that. Every country has it's own structure? Then what's the point of the EU army? It will just be another layer of bureaucracy and waste of taxpayer money. There are no benefits the EU military can bring that NATO and national militaries don't already have.
Dylan Moore
First example I can think of: Your country is best buddies with the Turks, because of financial interests. Meanwhile, we got territorial disputes with them and they're still occupying half of Cyprus.

>Meanwhile, we got territorial disputes with them and they're still occupying half of Cyprus. So? Are you suggesting there will be some military involvement of Greece in a Cyprus civil war... or that there could be a Cyprus civil war?
>I assume there are other territorial disputes or claims between EU countries or neighbors of EU countries that mantain good relations with other EU countries. You assume wrong. There are no such conflicts. It is completely unrealistic that any EU states would military engage each other.
>And don't even get me started on the logistical nightmare it would be. What logistical nightmare? We already have a logistical nightmare balancing 27 different militaries when engaging in foreign missions. If we had ONE structure, things would be a shitload better.

Only problem; It'd be great if the head of the EU weren't such dictatorial neo-feudalist globalists overpaid retards, that actually acted in the best interests of the people. If putin were to head the EU, or if people ACTUALLY had a vote on it, sure.

If something happened between Greece and Turkey, whose side would NATO take? It would be a similar dillema for an EU army if anything happened. It would be a conflict of interest for many of the participating countries. The armed forces of a country exist to protect the sovereignety of the country, first and foremost. Token participation in NATO missions abroad are just extras. A unified EU army would mean that all EU members have abolished their sovereignety in favor of a unified EU goverment, which won't happen, ever.

Actually, it wouldn't. Greece would always come first in a conflict with a non-EU country. If there were an attack on Greece and there were an EU army, the EU army would retaliate, as its task would be to defend the EU at all costs... just like a Texan jet pilot defends Alaska or a Californian footsoldier defends New York.
