[It's worth recalling how the Maastricht Treaty was
forced down the throats of the Danish people, who
wanted no part of it, as well as the record of Danish
ruling elites during the Nazi invasion and occupation
of their country.
The NATOized quislings in Copenhagen will support any
and every US-NATO war - against Yugoslavia, against
Afghanistan, against Iraq, against their own neighbors
if it comes to that as long as they can prove their
fealty to Brussels and Washington.
Their predecessors didn't fare so well after 1944.
Prehaps a warning?]

Danish prime minister says Europe, United States must
stand together against Iraq 
Tue Oct 1, 9:06 AM ET


COPENHAGEN, Denmark -  Denmark's prime minister said
Tuesday that Europe and America must unite forces
against countries with weapons of mass destruction and
the United Nations (  news -  web sites) must "live up
to its responsibility" to stop them from spreading.  
Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen, whose country
holds the rotating European Union (  news -  web
sites) presidency, pointed to attempts by the U.S.
administration to persuade the UN to approve
resolutions authorizing the use of military force to
oust Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein (  news -  web
sites). 
U.S. President George W. Bush (  news -  web sites)
says Saddam is stockpiling biological and chemical
weapons and trying to obtain nuclear bombs in
violation of U.N. resolutions. 
"Europe and the United States must stand together in
attempts at preventing that tyrannical and
irresponsible regimes have weapons of mass
destruction," Fogh Rasmussen told parliament as it
reconvened after a summer break. "Iraq is ruled by
such a regime." 
U.N. Security Council members with veto powers �
Britain, the United States, France, Russia and China �
are divided over how many resolutions should be
presented. Britain sides the United States in favoring
a single resolution, threatening military strikes if
Saddam does not follow orders to disarm. 
France is leaning toward two � one to send weapons
inspectors into Iraq and one to deal with the
consequences if Saddam doesn't obey. 
"The international community's efforts to enforce
these injunctions has the full support of Denmark and
the EU," Fogh Rasmussen said. 
"The United Nations must (now) live up to its
responsibility to stop the spreading of the weapons of
mass destruction," he said. "It will be too late when
the toxic gases have been spread over one of our
cities." 
The Danish leader acknowledged trans-Atlantic
"differences of opinion" but said Europe and the
United States share the same basic values and
principles and "what unites us is stronger than what
divides us." 
NATO-member Denmark holds the EU's presidency through
December.
