Europe and the US really wants the same thing, defeating or minimizing terrorism, we just want to use slightly different methods.
Here's an example that we can still cooperate. Even those countries opposed to the war is expected to accept this.

Oh I know that Europe and the USA and many other nations all have various causes in common, what I do think though is that for our own good (the USA) we should re-examine our treaties and alliances and our force deployments to better serve modern day needs..the Cold War is over..so we really need no bases in Western Europe to Counter Cold War Enemies or to prop up local economies. NATO has pretty much served it's purpose and should also be either done away with or rebuilt with a new focus and objective.....as for the UN....well...it was a nice idea..but I think its a long shot from what it's founding members originally imagined it to become.....I think it's just time to clean house and re-think strategies.
