The "Old Europe" term is not much more than a diplomatic euphemism for an insult.

That's bold. So far I thought, that Germany only imports psychopaths from Austria. Now I learn, that Germany also exports them to America.

I'm curious though as to what price the 'new' europe will have to pay, once this is all behind us.
-Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

Old Europe: those nations who supported us in our War of Independence against England and presently oppose the war against Iraq (e.g., France and Germany).
New Europe: those nations, including Great Britian, who opposed American independence and are supporting us in the war against Iraq (e.g., Spain, proud member of the Habsburg "Axis of Evil" at the time).
Makes you think, doesn't it?

Europe used to span the entire globe! So all the countries of the world are OLD EUROPE!
New Europe is just Eastern Old Europe (minus Russia). And all those countries supporting us.
Dont schools in Belgium teach these things....
Just goes to show how Belgium is OLD EUROPE.

"Old Europe" would be the countries that have 'ruled the world' for ages.
It would include Spain and The Netherlands and The UK.Formerly known as "CyberShy"

Too much talk about "Old Europe" and "New Europe". Let's talk about "Future Europe" instead
