You don't spend EIGHT years preparing UF with training, equipment and war preparations only to use as a negotiation tactic. It's time they test it out in the battle field to show their "metal". There is no free lunch, in this case just shedding blood. Of course the EU parliament will chit chat the ideals of freedom, democracy, human rights and any other warm fuzzies with the mugs "meehh" away like green Vegemite sangers.
