For me they seem to be nothing more than intelligence assets, giving a public face to the CIA, FBI, etc.

It's been planned. Much of the weapons are obsolete or obsolescent or they're just getting rid of old stock that's coming to the end of its service life. They are also planning to buy new weapons from the USA, replacing not only their own stock but the major part of their own weapons industry, thus making Europe increasingly dependent on United States to a hitherto unprecedented degree. The same goes for Europe's energy industry, made to a high degree dependent upon the USA.

Not post modern ( post modernism ). Post modernism is against colonialism, imperialism, etc. and critiques it (one of the reasons it's attacked).

Or quite possibly humanity's end game.

"Laws and rights" are still values, values which are ultimately derived from moral reason as held by the rulers of any given society at any given time.

@Nikoya73 I am sorry but I am having trouble understanding the distinction you are trying to make between a moral value and the legal codification of that moral value. ¤ Is not a law merely the expression of a moral sentiment. Society believes 'X' is morally right or morally wrong and the law reflects that. Society, for instance, may believe that murder is wrong and thus the law says it is wrong; society says that theft is wrong and, again, the law does too. ¤ Is it not society — based on inherent moral concepts of right and wrong — that decides whether or not someone should have or be denied certain rights, together with what those rights should be in the first place?
