Give me an example in which contemporary conflict is the involvement the EU army. This EU can't defend Europe from the flood of immigrants from Africa. At headquarters they can only talk endlessly and I'm afraid they can not defend Europe.

It will be a matter for the mods to decide, but I would say this thread is a political thread. The real question is whether is has, or is likely to, generate disputes as to the positions it takes and whether there is any relevance to air related matters.
Unfortunately, I think there is high potential for disagreement to develop from this thread. Plus I am of the opinion that the relevance to air matters, or historical conflicts is a bit too tenuous.
Unfortunately, we as members, including me, have in the past displayed a little too emotion for us to handle political debates.
Don't be surprised if this thread gets closed.

Any accolades given to the Polish people are and will be applauded by me no matter who they come from.
Besides that, politics are redundant for me.

As for Europe, I think we all should do a brexit, start fending for our own en start a few juicy wars like we did last century. That will keep the immigrants at bay.
For the rest way too political subject I'm afraid.

.... and would it be 'too political' if it were September, 1939 and we were discussing Poland????
Civilized men can discuss politics without being mean or turning any discussion into mud-wrestling.
The 3 Seas alliance of which Poland is an active pillar is completely understandable in this post cold war climate.

I am curious, would a united EU Army/AIr Force/Navy really be a bad thing?

..... motivation is critical for self defense. The EU has the interests of France, Germany, The Netherlands, Italy Belgium and Britain (pending Brexit). These nations lack the motivation to be proactive in their defense in contrast to 3 Seas alliance.
As France demonstrated in May, 1940 .... the bigger you are the harder you fall.
