Can
it possibly be that Europe's present future is once again a German
decision. Chancellor Merkel's European strategy is being openly
challenged in Berlin and Karlsruhe by the president and the
constitutional court.
Merkel
is still popular with her electorate but the Euro crisis and the
seemingly rapid disintegration of European solidarity, shows signs of
eating the very fabric of the European project.

| Is this love or pie in the sky. German constitutional court debates Europe's future. A long delay will finish the Eurozone in its present form: July 2012 |
Powerful
forces are assembled to ensure no more Europe until clear and
democratic policies are fully debated within the German
establishment.
In
many ways it can only be Germany now which decides. Chancellor Merkel
famously said “If the Euro fails, Europe fails.” Perhaps it is
still too soon for Europa Maximus to succeed. Better the devil you
know.
The focus for Europe's future is now centred in Karlsruhe with the
German constitutional court. They, today Tuesday 10th July, have put the fiscal pact on hold to consider objections by persons loyal
to Euroskepticism. If indeed they take months to decide the treaty's
fate then the Eurozone in its present form is doomed. Spain
especially and probably Italy too will not have enough oxygen to
survive this time frame unaided.
Maybe
it is planned this way
