European Parliament is in favor of establishing one common EU military.

Jacek Saryusz-Wolski, chairman of the foreign relations committee of
the European Parliament is in favor of establishing one common EU
military force.

The Polish MEP said this would enable, for instance, intervention of
units from Union countries in conflict situations in which NATO
cannot or does not want to engage its forces.

The idea of creating EU units has been presented by the party of
French president Sarkozy. Poland could contribute 10 thousand troops
to this European contingent. Jacek Saryusz-Wolski reminded Poland
should feel an obligation towards this initiative, being part of the
G-6 group of the biggest countries of the Old Continent and a country
with long experience in combat missions, including Iraq.

Simply woman should be banned from military.

warriors of the political correctness.

Simply woman should be banned from military. Where the hell is this old ethos of man defending woman?? Why in the west everything must be upside down? Probably sending woman division on the first front would the greatest sign of progressiveness according to the warriors of the political correctness.

Nothing new or policitally correct about women fighting, as stated above its been happening for years, ever heard of a lady called Boudica?

It a good job the women of Warsaw never had that attitude in 1944.

The British Army is the best in the world, if it had the same amount of manpower as say the US nobody could touch it :)
