How do we "crash" the EU? Very simple. If the UK withdraws then the EU is finished. The €4bn hole we would kick in the EU budget would completely cripple the whole organisation. The CAP would have to go and there would be riots in France as the farmers lay siege to Paris. The doddering Italian economy is already on the verge of collapse even with Central Bank support. They are already worried that Italy may have to withdraw from the Euro.

It could all end so very easily. It is nowhere near as solid as it seems.

Now is the time to start taking this danger VERY seriously. This is big and very nasty business in action. The objective seems absolutely clear. Destroy GPL and 'steal' all the technology. An activity with plenty of precedence.
