If it was just a matter of the various continental EU "old europe" nations being spoiled, spineless, and generally useless, then it wouldn't be so bad.
But, what we have is supposed allies that actually go the extra mile and offer constant and direct aid to whom ever we happen to be having to fight.
Austria provided 1000 of their .50 cal sniper rifles to Iran. Many of those rifles have been distributed to murder/death cultists in Iraq and are used to kill US and Coalition servicemen. The Austrian gov likes to pretend shock and concern about that as they twitter and giggle behind their hands.
Switzerland refused to honor an agreement to provide a 100 or so armored personnel carriers (M113) to the newly forming Iraqi Police Force because that would be seen as "assisting the US in their illegal and immoral war".
Those are just two examples. By all tradition, custom and rights, both those nations cities should be reduced to burning ash. You side with the enemy, you are enemy. Enemy is enemy. All equal under the gun.
It's fun to line up for a turn to kick the US in the nuts. Its the national sport of most EU nations.
