    The European Parliament has voted to end visa-free travel for Americans within the EU.

    It comes after the US failed to agree visa-free travel for citizens of five EU countries – Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Poland and Romania – as part of a reciprocity agreement. US citizens can normally travel to all countries in the bloc without a visa.

    The vote urges the revocation of the scheme within two months, meaning Americans will have to apply for extra documents for 12 months after the European Commission implements a “delegated act” to bring the change into effect.


    The Commission discovered three years ago that the US was not meeting its obligations under the reciprocity agreement but has not yet taken any legal action. The latest vote, prepared by the civil liberties committee and approved by a plenary session of parliament, gives the Commission two months to act before MEPs can consider action in the European Court of Justice.

    The problem with reciprocity of the entire EU is that not all countries are equal and some country's citizens are more likely to overstay. I don't blame the US for not letting certain countries in the EU have free visa privileges...I also don't blame the EU for removing the same privilege for US citizens.

    I'm not sure it is the wisest move considering the thin-skinned nut-bag we have sitting in the Kremlin...err, I mean White House. He hasn't exactly had the nicest things to say about EU and NATO. Might be wise for EU countries to beef up their own military forces to deal with Russia on their own. (I'm not saying this out of spite, just a concern that the EU should be looking at.)

    Interesting situation, isn't that the concept behind the "NWO". Every one is equal except the "elite", so we will all live as the lowest acceptable (or unacceptable) level of life except those who direct our lives. How is Germany going to correct the mistakes that their policy has created? ( "Angela Merkel admits mistakes over asylum seekers after disastrous election" but it seems like "Closing the barn door when the cow has bolted" may apply, lets see what happens. )

    Then I suppose the solution to that would be to "direct your own lives"?

    ....but maybe that would be exactly the illusion of control the Illuminati want you to believe you have and what The All Seeing Eye is paying me to tell the Sheeple to keep them oppressed under the Globalists clutches. :cautious: Someone better call Alex Jones ASAP.


    (Fact: Alex and Trump are good friends.)

    Who said it was a "mistake"? Maybe it is all working out exactly as planned? I have told you too much already, I don't want to displease our lizard vampire globalist overlords. :watchyou:
