Europe doesn't have enough nuclear power to fight us. Neither France, nor UK.
They don't have enough missiles, aircrafts, submarines that can do the job. We have times more tactical nuclear weapons.

Israeli Defense Minister Katz: Israel will not leave southern Lebanon, Syria, or Gaza - no time limit. Security zones will be cleared and all terror infrastructure destroyed.
Netanyahu made this clear to Trump. Katz told Hegseth yesterday. Both oppose withdrawal despite the U.S.-Iran ceasefire that reportedly includes Hezbollah.
Katz warned Iran that any attack on Israel over Lebanon will be met "with full force."
Iran scrapped a major missile attack on Israel just before signing the deal, VP Vance says. U.S. communications convinced Tehran to stand down after Israeli strikes on Beirut.
Vance: "They assured us they were NOT going to respond to the Israelis. They were going to sign the agreement, and get to peace."
