The Woman riding the Beast...next picture The European Parliament sits in Strasbourg, a city which symbolizes the dream of Franco-German integration and was the heart of the Holy Roman Empire of Charlemagne. Its flag was inspired by the halo of twelve stars around pictures of the Madonna that appears prominently on Strasbourg Cathedral's Council of Europe stained-glass window, unveiled to the world on 11th December 1955 coinciding with the Roman Catholic feast of the Immaculate Conception. Pope John Paul II dedicated the EU to the Virgin Mary. On the dome of the new £8-million Parliament Building in Strasbourg there is a colossal painting of the Woman riding the Beast.

Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page JU LY 2, 2008 ---------FRENCH HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR EU PRESIDENCY French President Nicolas Sarkozy has laid down ambitious objectives for the European Union over the next six months under the French presidency. He wants to create more unified and tougher European immigration and asylum policies toward foreigners by harmonizing EU legislation and tightening border controls. He also wants a stronger European defense - a goal that goes hand in hand with plans for France's return to NATO's military wing. Mr. Sarkozy also hopes Europe will agree to a new EU climate change agreement and to open debate on the future of the EU's Common Agricultural Policy. During an interview Monday night on France 3 television, the French president said it was important that the European Union protect its citizens. A case in point, Mr. Sarkozy said was his call to cut European gas taxes, to help European drivers bear the cost of rising oil prices. Mr. Sarkozy predicted that forging a European agreement on climate change would be the toughest goal of the French presidency. Mr. Sarkozy said that Europe must set an example to get other countries, like the United States, China, Brazil and India, to cut their greenhouse emissions. He laid out the EU's particular goals, to cut by 20 percent Europe's energy consumption, its greenhouse gas emissions, while increasing alternative energy use by a fifth, all by the year 2020, and without sacrificing Europe's industrial competitiveness. The French presidency comes at a time when the EU faces a crisis after Irish voters rejected the so-called Lisbon treaty in a June referendum. Ireland has been given four months to figure out its next step. Of the EU's 27 members, Ireland is the only one so far to have rejected the document, which aims to forge a closer and stronger bloc. The worst case scenario is that the treaty might be scuttled, just like the more ambitious charter that preceded it The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page JUNE 24, 2008 ---------EU NATIONS TO INCREASE SANCTIONS AGAINST IRAN European Union states agreed on a new round of sanctions against Iran on Monday over its refusal to meet international demands to curb its nuclear program, an EU official said. The Iran sanctions were on a list of policy proposals put to EU ministers at a meeting in Luxembourg. EU diplomats have said the new sanctions include measures to target Iran's biggest bank, Bank Melli, with an asset and funds freeze. The measures will notably stop the operations of the bank's offices in London, Hamburg and Paris. The new sanctions also add more names of people and organizations to the EU's visa-ban and assets-freeze lists, according to one of the sources. The EU move stems from a strict interpretation of UN sanctions against Iran which have been adopted since 2006 aimed at persuading Tehran to suspend its uranium enrichment activities, which the international community fears are part of a nuclear weapons building program. Tehran insists it wants atomic energy only for a growing population whose fossil fuels will eventually run out. The UN sanctions include a clause calling for ‘vigilance’ by member states over the movement in their territories of people directly associated with or supporting Iran's nuclear activities. The EU has decided to interpret this clause in the strictest fashion, one European diplomat said. Washington has been waiting for Europe to take such measures for months. Indeed the matter became a theme of US President George W. Bush's recent European tour The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page JUNE 1 6, 2008 ---------EU URGES DEFIANT IRAN TO ACCEPT NUCLEAR OFFER EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana on Saturday urged Iran to give a positive response to a new offer on ending a six-year standoff with the international community over its nuclear drive. Solana, who presented the offer on behalf of world powers, stressed the need to restore trust in ‘the peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear program’, even after Tehran rejected a key condition of halting uranium enrichment. ‘I hope that the answer will be soon and positive,’ he told a press conference at the end of a mission to Tehran. The package, drawn up by permanent UN Security Council members plus Germany, offers Iran economic and trade incentives in a bid to resolve a crisis that has raised fears of regional conflict, pushed up oil prices and seen Iran hit by UN sanctions. Solana said the offer was ‘full of opportunities for Iran’ and he hoped it would be the ‘starting point for the real negotiations.’ Just hours into Solana's visit, Iran's government spokesman rejected the apparent main condition of the offer -- that Tehran suspends uranium enrichment, a process that can be used to make a nuclear bomb. ‘Iran's stance is clear. The precondition of a halt and suspension of nuclear activities cannot be brought up,’ Gholam Hossein Elham said. But Solana said ‘we continue to ask for a suspension during the time of negotiations and we will see the outcome of negotiations. The negotiations will take months.’ The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth! JUNE 13, 2008 --------- EU looks to enter 'new era' as player on world stage, enforce foreign policy with EU Army The European Parliament is seeking to bolster its role in the bloc's common foreign and security policy (CFSP), with senior MEPs saying it is time for Europe to become a "player and not just a payer" on the world stage. Polish center-right MEP and head of the foreign affairs committee, Jacek Saryusz-Wolski, says that EU foreign is moving "from one era to another" with the new Lisbon Treaty, due to kick in next year. The proposed new EU foreign minister and diplomatic service as well as the possibility for a group of member states to move ahead in defense cooperation mean foreign policy is "one of the most innovative parts of the treaty." Mr Saryusz-Wolski, who believes the union will gradually develop its own army, says it is no longer enough that the bloc exercises its traditional role as a soft power. "Too often we spend money without any conditions being attached. I am against Europe being a payer and not a player," he said. But he admits there is a "fear" in the parliament that the foreign minister and the new permanent president of the European Council may add to the trill of voices of on the EU stage all claiming to speak for Europe and may not turn Europe into a player. The potential for overlap between the two posts – starting in January - and for rivalry with the European Commission president is high.. The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page MAY 14, 2008 ---------EU MINISTERS IN GEORGIA FOR CRISIS TALKS Five European Union foreign ministers are in Georgia to show support for its pro-Western government, as a Georgian-Russian dispute over Moscow's backing for Georgian separatists continues. The foreign ministers of Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovenia and Sweden are meeting Monday with Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili and other top officials. The delegation told reporters Sunday the European delegation would express solidarity with the Tbilisi government and voice support for Georgian sovereignty. Tensions between Moscow and Tbilisi escalated last month, when then-Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his government to establish closer ties with separatists in two Georgian breakaway border regions, Abkhazia and South Ossetia. Within days of that order, Georgia accused the Russian military of shooting down one of its unmanned intelligence aircraft over the breakaway republic of Abkhazia. Moscow also moved to boost its military presence in Abkhazia. Since then, Abkhazian authorities claimed six more shoot downs, including two downings today. Russia has denied involvement. Georgia denied losing any drones Monday The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page MAY 9, 2008 ---------EU delays ruling on GM products The European Commission on Wednesday ordered more tests on whether several genetically modified products should be allowed in Europe, putting back a decision on whether to give approval. Commission spokesman Johannes Laitenberger put the new delay down to divisions within the European Union's executive arm, pitting environmentalists against the biotech industry. The European Commission, which has not authorized a GM crop in the EU since 1998, faces growing pressure to resolve the matter The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page MAY 8, 2008 ---------The European Union Election While the US is getting ready to vote for a new president, the European Union is also making plans to elect a president. He will be known as the “President of Europe” and the extent of the job description is not fully known or set in place. Tony Blair was favored for the job, but a new hopeful is quietly emerging, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, the liberal Prime Minister of Denmark. So far, there are at least eight contenders vying for the job. Elections to the European Parliament will be held from 11 June to 14 June 2009 in the 27 member states of the European Union, using varying election days according to local custom. 496 million Union citizens will elect 736 MEPs by proportional representation, topping the 2004 election which was the biggest trans-national election in history. It could potentially be the first election to take place under the expected Treaty of Lisbon, increasing the power of the Parliament and relevance of the election.

MAY 2, 2008 --------- EU WARNS RUSSIA AGAINST BOOSTING TROOPS IN GEORGIAN BREAKAWAY REGIONS In a sharp escalation of tensions in the South Caucasus, Russia has claimed that Georgia is set to invade its breakaway region of Abkhazia and is increasing the number of Russian troops there and in South Ossetia in response. The EU's foreign policy chief, Javier Solana, has warned Russia against such a move. ‘Even if the increase in peacekeepers is within limits, if we want to diminish the perception of tensions, I don't think it is a wise measure to increase now,’ EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana said on Tuesday (29 April), adding that the union continues to defend the territorial integrity of Georgia. The statement came only hours after Russia had accused Georgia, a part of the Soviet Union between 1922 and 1991, of attempting to invade Abkhazia, something that Tbillisi denies. ‘If Georgia puts in place the threat it has made on a number of occasions about the use of force in South Ossetia and Abkhazia, we would be forced to take retaliatory measures to protect the lives of our citizens,’ Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov told press, after talking to his European counterparts in Luxembourg on Tuesday. The Russian foreign ministry has accused Georgia of sending 1,500 of its own troops and police in the upper Kodori Gorge in Abkhazia, which is still under Tblisi's control. ‘A bridgehead is being prepared for the start of military operations against Abkhazia,’ reads a ministry statement. Georgia has denied any plans or troop build-up, and regarded the Russian move and accusations as provocative. Prime Minister Lado Gurgenidze said: ‘From now on, we consider every [Russian] soldier or any unit of military equipment coming in [to Abkhazia and South Ossetia] as illegal, potential aggressors and potential generators of destabilization.’ ‘We consider this to be an utterly irresponsible step. We think this step will utterly destabilize this region,’ he added The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page APRIL 1 7, 2008 ---------EUROZONE COUNTRIES SHOULD SPEAK WITH ONE VOICE, JUNCKER SAYS Countries using the euro should speak with one voice and be represented by one seat in the International Monetary Fund in order to be more credible, the president of the eurogroup, Jean-Claude Juncker, said on Tuesday (15 April). Referring to an idea raised by French president Nicolas Sarkozy that the eurozone – the 15 countries that have adopted the single currency – should be represented by one single voice internationally, Mr Juncker said he too thought this was ‘the only way to go.’ ‘It is absurd for those 15 countries not to agree to have a single representation at the IMF. It makes us look absolutely ridiculous. We are regarded as buffoons on the international scene,’ the group's president said at a conference in Brussels. EU economic and monetary affairs commissioner Joaquin Almunia said eurozone countries should first adopt the same political agenda before thinking about common representation. ‘Once the policy agenda is defined, it's easier to have a single voice and then it's easier to advance to a single representation,’ Mr Almunia told a news conference on Tuesday The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth! APRIL 10, 2008 --------- EU EXPECTED TO CALL FOR BOYCOTT OF OLYMPIC OPENING CEREMONIES The European Union is expected to pass a motion Wednesday urging European countries to boycott the opening ceremonies of the Olympic Games in Beijing unless Chinese authorities begin talks with the Dalai Lama. The motion, which is non-binding, stems from China's crackdown in Tibet after violent protests against Chinese rule broke out last month. ‘There is this growing momentum to send some sort of signal to China,’ CBC's David Common said. The resolution by the 27-member union obtained by Reuters says: ‘The European Parliament calls on the EU presidency in office to strive to find a common EU position with regard to attendance at the Olympic Games opening ceremony with the option of non-attendance in the event if there is no resumption of dialogue between the Chinese authorities and His Holiness the Dalai Lama.’ Common said the motion is expected to pass. China has blamed the ‘Dalai clique’ for orchestrating the protests in the Tibetan capital of Lhasa. But the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader has denied claims he instigated the violence. He has said he would be willing to meet with Chinese leaders, including Chinese President Hu Jintao. China has said the door is open to talks but only if the Dalai Lama recognizes Tibet as part of China and gives up his separatist activities. French President Nicolas Sarkozy said Tuesday that he would consider boycotting the ceremonies unless Chinese authorities began speaking to the Dali Lama. U.S. President George W. Bush and British Prime Minister Gordon Brown plan to attend the ceremonies, while German Chancellor Angela Merkel has said she will skip the opening. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has said he will not attend but that he never planned to and that Ottawa will send a high-level delegation to the ceremonies The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth! ***WATCHMAN...

CLICH HERE for NEWS & VIEWS Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page February , 2008 --------- European Union now has world's biggest economy The European Union has overtaken the U.S. as the world's No. 1 economy due to the continued dramatic fall of the dollar, according to a Reuters report. The U.S. Gross Domestic Product, or GDP, for 2007 is officially estimated at $13,843,800 billion. The 2007 GDP for the 15 EU countries is estimated at 8,847,889 billion euros, the report said. That means when the euro yesterday topped $1.56, the EU officially became the largest economy in the world. In a Financial Times commentary published Monday, former Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan declared the current financial crisis in the U.S. "is likely to be judged in retrospect as the most wrenching" since the end of World War II. Greenspan further concluded the U.S. financial crisis will not end until "home prices stabilize and with them the value of equity in homes supporting troubled mortgage securities.".

The Financial Times Harris poll, carried out in five countries, showed that most Europeans would like to see a prominent political figure as EU president. The post, created under the Lisbon Treaty, comes into effect next year. Fifty per cent of Britons backed a high-profile figure, rising to around 80 per cent in France, Italy and Spain. Only the Germans were less enthusiastic, with 45 per cent favoring a political star. Mr. Blair scored well inside and outside his own country. Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, was the only other figure to enjoy the same widespread popularity, and she is not a candidate The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page February , 2008 --------- EU'S SOLANA HOPEFUL OF NEW NUCLEAR TALKS WITH IRAN EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana said Sunday that he hoped to meet Iran's top nuclear negotiator within the next three months, a day after Iran ruled out further talks with major world powers. ‘I hope to be able to meet soon’ with Iranian negotiator Saeed Jalili, he said at the Brussels Forum conference in the Belgian capital. Solana, who has led talks aimed at persuading Iran to suspend uranium enrichment, said he did not expect a meeting in coming days because ‘nothing dramatic is going to happen’ in the wake of last week's elections there. He said a possible time frame might be in ‘30 days to 90 days’. ‘Let's see what is the response’ from Tehran, he said. The UN Security Council two weeks ago tightened sanctions against Tehran for a third time over its refusal to heed the world body's calls to freeze uranium enrichment, a potential weapons-making process. A review is scheduled 90 days after they were imposed. Solana has, for almost two years, been trying to persuade the Islamic republic to suspend uranium enrichment in exchange for a vast package of political, trade and economic incentives The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page February 13, 2008 ---------EU PLANS BIOMETRIC BORDER CHECKS Visitors to the EU could face digital fingerprinting at airports under plans to beef up border security, EU Justice Commissioner Franco Frattini has said. He said travelers from outside the EU could face a biometric test as part of their visa while those not needing a permit would be checked on arrival. There are also plans to improve border surveillance and land and sea patrols. Rights group Privacy International said the move could create a ‘fortress Europe’ for foreigners. The proposals for a radical shake-up of the EU's border security were unveiled by Mr. Frattini in Brussels. The commissioner said the 27-member bloc had to use ‘the most advanced technology to reach the highest level of security’ to stop visitors overstaying their welcome in Europe and to prevent terrorists from coming in. The plans would also allow for a Registered Traveler Program to enable EU citizens to pass through customs with only random checks. That could be extended to include non-EU citizens on multiple visas The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth! February 6, 2008 --------- BRUSSELS TO TIGHTEN EU EXTERNAL BORDERS The European Commission is working on a new set of measures aimed at strengthening the EU's external borders in order to monitor migrants and track down criminals.
The package suggests setting up an entry/exit register of non-European visitors to the EU, and a European Border Surveillance System designed to detect those who enter the bloc between border crossing points. In addition, Brussels is set to push for better use of the EU's border control agency, Frontex, particularly via ‘intensified’ joint operations between member states at sea borders. ‘It is now time to look ahead and develop the next generation of border management tools’, Mr. Frattini's paper says, while suggesting the package should become part of a priority list of the current Slovenian EU presidency. All proposed measures could then enter into force between 2012 and 2015 The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth! January 11, 2008 --------- Tony Blair to become EU President in 2009? Former UK prime minister Tony Blair will attend a conference of French president Nicolas Sarkozy's center-right party UMP on Saturday, in what is said to be his first intervention for a party other than his own. The move is fuelling speculation that Mr. Blair, who belongs to the UK's center-left Labor party, is in the running for EU president – a new high-profile job that can be held for up to five years starting in 2009. The two men will debate Europe and Mr. Blair may get clear backing from Mr. Sarkozy in exchange of his participation at the conference, according to media reports. The UMP meeting marks the launch of its pre-electoral campaign before the municipal elections in France on 9 and 16 March – but there is set to be much speculation around Mr. Blair's attendance. The president of the socialist group in the French national assembly, Jean-Marc Ayrault, has accused Mr. Sarkozy of preparing the ground for Mr Blair's candidacy for the EU top job with Saturday's event. "I see something emerging from the UMP's side and from the president of the republic…, which is preparing Tony Blair's candidacy for EU president", Mr. Ayrault was reported as saying by French news agency AFP on Tuesday. "This candidacy is not acceptable, because it is not acceptable that the first EU president is a man who supported and participated in the war in Iraq", he added. Other politicians who have already expressed interest in what is to set to be one of the EU's top jobs include Luxembourg's prime minister Jean-Claude Juncker and his Irish counterpart Bertie Ahern. Two more positions are also up for grabs next year – president of the European Commission and EU foreign minister. Haggling over the nominations for the post is set to start in earnest in the second half of this year when France takes over the EU presidency. ........................... France is ready to champion larger EU France is to become a champion of further enlargement of the European Union, according to the French minister for Europe, in a change of approach likely to ease the accession of new members to the bloc. In an interview with the Financial Times, Jean-Pierre Jouyet said the French government under Nicolas Sarkozy, the president, had ditched its longstanding skepticism about enlargement and now saw a bigger EU as a stronger force in the world. Mr. Jouyet said there had been a sea change in the government’s approach to Europe since French voters rejected the EU constitution in a referendum in 2005. “We have crossed a very important Rubicon in the last two years in terms of European integration. We used to believe that a federal Europe was necessary for a more deeply integrated union and that enlargement would counter this and prevent Europe from working effectively. We have now overcome this contradiction. “The thing that has most struck me since I took up this job seven months ago is precisely the capacity of an EU of 27 members, and more one day, to take decisions.” Mr. Jouyet said further extending the EU’s borders “does not make me worried”. France would push for the eventual integration of the Balkan countries, including Serbia, which he described as a “pole of stability” for the region. However, there are limits to how far Paris wants the EU to grow. Mr. Sarkozy opposes Turkish membership of the EU. And Mr. Jouyet admitted that “in France we have not done enough to make the case for enlargement”. With France due to take over the EU’s rotating six-month presidency in July, Mr. Jouyet said his government’s ambitions were that “Europe gets moving once again and that France regains its role”. France’s priorities are a bigger role for the EU in defense and security, energy and the environment, an EU-wide pact on immigration and integration of foreigners and new regulation of financial markets following the credit squeeze.

Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page December 31, 2007 - January 1, 2008---------EUROPE SHOCKED AND ANGRY OVER BHUTTO KILLING European politicians joined their counterparts from all over the world in expressing anger and regret over the murder of Pakistani opposition leader Benazir Bhutto, while urging the Muslim and nuclear power-holding country to keep on the path to democracy and refrain from violence. ‘I learned with dismay of the assassination of Mrs. Benazir Bhutto, Chair of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP), today in Rawalpindi,’ stated European Commission president Jose Manuel Barroso on Thursday (27 January), referring to it as a ‘callous terrorist attack.’ EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana said the act was ‘clearly aimed at destabilizing the country and it shows that there are forces and people who are trying to undermine reconciliation and the democratization process in Pakistan.’ Mrs. Bhutto, 54, Pakistan's prime minister from 1988 to 1990 and from 1993 to 1996, was shot by a man who then blew himself up and killed around 20 others at an election rally in Rawalpindi… Several European leaders highlighted Mrs. Bhutto's courage for participating in a campaign ahead of the 8 January parliamentary election, in which her PPP party was tipped to win with clear majority. In a letter to Pakistan's president Pervez Musharraf, French president Nicolas Sarkozy said the murdered politician had paid ‘with her life for her commitment to the service of her fellow citizens and to Pakistan's political life.’ Italian leader Romano Prodi referred to the murdered politician as ‘a woman who chose to fight her battle until the end with a single weapon — the one of dialogue and political debate.’ In Britain, where Mrs. Bhutto had attended Oxford University, prime minister Gordon Brown called her murderers ‘cowards who are afraid of democracy,’ adding ‘this atrocity strengthens our resolve that the terrorists will not win there, here, or anywhere in the world.’ German Chancellor Angela Merkel also stressed that the attack ‘targets the stability and democratic process of Pakistan’ and along with her European counterparts urged the country's leadership to prevent further violence and political instability The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page Dec 7, 2007 ---------EU MARKS 'HISTORICAL' ENLARGEMENT OF BORDERLESS ZONE The EU's borderless zone expanded to nine mostly eastern European countries at midnight on Friday (21 December) in its biggest enlargement so far. Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovenia, Slovakia and the Czech Republic - which all joined the EU in 2004 - are part of this enlargement to the so-called Schengen area. Land and sea border checks between them and the other Schengen countries are now abolished, while air borders are set to follow on 30 March 2008. Practically it means that as of today, ‘people can travel hassle-free between 24 countries of the Schengen area without internal land and sea border controls- from Portugal to Poland and from Greece to Finland’, EU justice commissioner Franco Frattini said in a statement. ‘An area of 24 countries without internal borders is a unique and historical achievement.

December 20, 2007 --------- Expansion of the EU's borderless area Eu slowly retuning to Old Roman Empire boundaries A minute after midnight on Thursday, the European Union will lift border checks with nine of its newest members. Here are key facts about the expansion of its border-free area: - The Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, Malta, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia will join the border-free "Schengen" zone on December 21. Border posts will be dismantled, people will travel without showing passports. The end of checks will be extended to airports in March. - Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Greece and non-EU members Norway and Iceland are already part of the borderless area. EU members Britain and Ireland have chosen not to take part. - The expanded zone will be 3.6 million sq km (1.4 million sq miles), with more than 400 million inhabitants. It is named the Schengen area, after a village in Luxembourg where a first agreement to cut border checks was signed in 1985 between the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany and France. - The Schengen area has been gradually expanding, but Thursday's extension will be the biggest so far. - The nine new Schengen entrants joined the EU in 2004. Cyprus, which also joined the EU in 2004, has asked for one year's delay. Romania and Bulgaria, which joined the EU this year, need more work to meet security criteria, officials say. - Schengen countries use an EU-wide database storing names of criminal suspects and stolen cars, for checks at the bloc's external borders.

But, an Iranian government spokesman, Gholam Hossein Elham, Tuesday ruled out a suspension of uranium enrichment, describing such a move as a step backward that is not on Iran's agenda. Iran's chief nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, is due to meet EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana in London on Friday. Solana has tried to persuade Iran to resume talks with the EU on suspending sensitive nuclear work in return for a package of incentives. Solana must report to the U.N.

Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page November 20, 2007 --------------EU 'SHOULD EXPAND BEYOND EUROPE' Foreign Secretary David Miliband has suggested the European Union should work towards including Russia, Middle Eastern and North African countries. He said enlargement was ‘our most powerful tool’ for extending stability. In his first major speech on the UK's relationship with Europe, he said the EU would not become a ‘superpower’ but should be a ‘role model’ for the world. It could be a ‘model power of regional co-operation’ dedicated to free trade, the environment and tackling extremism. He said the EU must ‘keep our promises to Turkey’, adding: ‘If we fail.... it will signal a deep and dangerous divide between east and west. ‘Beyond that we must keep the door open, retaining the incentive for change and the prospect of membership provides.’ Mr. Miliband made his address at the College of Europe in Bruges, Belgium, where Baroness Thatcher delivered her famous warning against ‘some sort of identikit European personality’ almost exactly two decades ago in September 1988 The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!

Mr. Miliband will use a speech in Bruges to warn the European Union it faces becoming irrelevant if it is unwilling to deploy ‘hard power’ to promote democracy and tackle conflict beyond its borders. His remarks reflect simmering anger in the UK government that EU members like France and Germany have refused to deploy large numbers of troops in Afghanistan, leaving British forces bearing a disproportionate military burden there. ‘There is a clear fork in the road,’ Mr. Miliband will say, telling European leaders that if they ‘focus on internal not external challenges; institutions rather than ideals’ then the consequence will be ‘losing our hard power by not being prepared to intervene’. Mr. Miliband will also call for Europe to work together to tackle environmental concerns and propose that the free trade zone be extended into north Africa by 2030. The Foreign Secretary will argue that the EU can fill a vacuum in modern politics The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page November 9-11, 2007November 9-11, 2007 --------------EU SPLIT INTO SEVERAL CAMPS ON RUSSIA STRATEGY, SAYS REPORT Within the European Union there are a least five camps when it comes to dealing with Russia, ranging from the 'Trojan horse' countries to the 'new Cold warriors', says a new study analyzing the bloc's divided approach to its giant neighbor to the east. According to a fresh analysis by new thinktank European Council on Foreign Relations, the EU ‘has begun to behave as if it were subordinate to an increasingly assertive Russia’ largely due to its own disunity. The report points out that Russia is ‘picking off’ single member states to make long term energy deals, that Moscow has ‘shut the Union out’ of Caucasus and Central Asia, and is blocking an agreement on the status of Kosovo in the UN. ‘Russia is emerging as an ideological alternative to the EU (...) Whereas the EU stands for an idea of order based on consensus, interdependence and the rule of law, Russian foreign policy is motivated by a quest for power, independence and control.’ The report notes that Russia is able to do this even though the EU's combined economy is 15 times the size of Russia's, its military budget is seven times higher, and its population three times the size of Russia. The analysis also dismisses the idea that the disunity on Russia - an issue it says is the most ‘contentious’ for the EU since the Iraq war - has become worse since eastern European states joined in 2004. ‘EU divisions on Russia are more complex and surprising than a simple cleavage between old and new member states.’ The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page November 8, 2007 --------------EU TO PROPOSE COLLECTING DATA ON AIR PASSENGERS As part of a new EU counter-terrorism strategy, Brussels is to propose that member states collect 19 pieces of air passenger data, with the possibility to store it for up to thirteen years. On Tuesday (6 November), EU home affairs commissioner Franco Frattini will kick off a lengthy legislative process, which at the end should see an EU-wide air passengers name recording scheme (PNR) similar to the controversial US database on European air travelers. Mr. Frattini argues in his paper that ‘the collection and analysis of PNR data allows the law enforcement authorities to identify high risk passengers and to take appropriate measures’ such as secondary screening upon their arrival or a refusal of entry in the destination country. ‘Almost all terrorist campaigns are trans-national’, he points out. However, the commission proposal does not foresee a centralized pan-European database, as run the risk of failure due to the vast amount of data received from the 27 individual member states. Instead, it suggests that each member state sets up a passenger information unit responsible for collecting as well as analyzing the PNR data from all carriers operating flights into or from the EU territory. Member states' law enforcement authorities, entitled to receive and further process the information, should share them if ‘necessary’ for the prevention and fight against terrorist offences and organized crime The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!
Archived from NEWS+VIEWS page November 6, 2007 --------------The European Union is the most popular great power - more people across all continents want to see its power increase The results of the 2007 edition of Voice of the People - the world's largest survey of public opinion in 2007, based on interviews with 57,000 people from fifty-two countries - show that more world citizens want to see an increase in the power of the European Union than any other great power. In the survey, which asked people if the global influence of various major international powers (Brazil, China, the European Union, India, Iran, Russia, South Africa and the United States) should increase or decrease to make the world a better place, the EU received the highest number of positive answers. More than a third of respondents (35 percent) said they wanted to see an increase in EU power while only 20% want it to decline. Just over one in four respondents believe that India and South Africa should have greater influence (27 percent and 26 percent, respectively), whereas two in ten declare the opposite (20 percent and 18 percent). Almost a quarter (23 percent) think Brazil should be more influential while 17 percent believe the contrary. Russia and China provoke more negative than positive reactions. While 23 percent and 24 percent of respondents respectively want to see the power of these countries increase, 29 percent and 32 percent believe the world would benefit from a decline in their power. Respondents are most hostile to the influence of Iran and the United States. Although 26 percent of respondents believe an increase in US power would make the world a better place, 37 percent think the opposite. In the case of Iran, 39 percent would like to see its power decline, while only 14 percent want it to have more influence in the world. The EU is unique among the big four powers (the other three being the US, China and Russia) in that no one wants to balance its rise. It is striking that a continent with a military budget second only to the United States, and the biggest number of serving peacekeeping forces, is perceived as a force for good. This suggests that EU policy-makers' attempts to achieve greater visibility for EU power may well be misguided. The fact that European peacekeepers tend to operate under a NATO or a national flag rather than a European one probably helps to make the EU seem less threatening. The fragmentation of European power among twenty-seven member-states endows the EU with a stealthy quality on the world stage. The Last Days Signs - The End Times - Are Upon The Earth!

Note
the stars similar to the EU flag all in the form of a inverted pentagram 
simulating the face of satan (horns/nose) and the tower of Babel which the new
EU Parliament is modeled after... see last picture!
In
the Parliamentary Offices building PE1 there is a huge painting of a sparsely
dressed Woman riding the Beast.
Size reduced to lessen the offensive
nature of this picture though the woman is clothed! It is a significant end
times sign!
Outside
the new Council of Europe building there is a bronze statue of the Woman
riding the Beast which is riding the waves. On the
wall of the Diners' Club lounge in the EU's
administrative capital Brussels is a picture of the Woman
and the Beast together! 
This image
has appeared on EU postage stamps, including the
British one issued in 1984 to commemorate the second election to the European
Parliament. It is the sign and symbol of Europe and points the way to what is
planned.
The new £8-million
Parliament Building in Strasbourg. In the image of the Babble tower. The
Woman Riding the Beast is of course, distasteful to Bible-reading Christians the
world over. Yet, the depiction of the same symbol was reproduced on the
centenary stamp of the EU above and in a huge painting in the Parliament’s new
building in Brussels.
