EU racist?

An attempt to appeal to the young backfires. Computer-game-type characters seen as "ethnic"
"The European Commission has withdrawn a video promoting EU enlargement after it was accused of being racist. The film shows three men from ethnic minorities using martial arts skills apparently preparing to fight a woman. When she multiplies herself to form a circle around the men, they drop their weapons and her yellow clothes turn into the 12 stars of the EU."

Video here (Some advertising first). It's pretty dumb.

Well by that logic, the US Civil War was trying to do just that - separate into independent states or smaller groups. The single $ currency has worked against some states with very different economies (especially as the North and South in the Civil War), just as the euro currency works against economically divergent or weaker EU countries.
