Yep, he was a wise guy, you know ... Good for his country, bad for the rest. For instance, he also said that Britain would support anyone who had been loosing the war, be that USSR or Germany, to make it longer and more devastating. Anyways, Britain is a friend of USA, cause otherwise they would have to be friend of noone, noone "wants" them in Europe ... They are an echo of USA's opinion in Europe. You can count on fingers those times when Britain would oppose to USA's idea ... it would have to be really weird and out of the line ... <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

What I say, is just stop trying to convince someone of them being wrong, it is stupid and fruitless. You can't really expect a person to say "I'm wrong" or "I agree with you", since that would put the person in a not very bright light. I guess you (USA citizens) do know why you government does this or that and save the beautiful words for the world and also why there is so many people who ... errrr ... well, basically hate you (not you, the country as a whole). If you don't - bad for you.

Today is the first day of a new year, be happy! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

This is interesting because whenever I am living in or travelling in Europe I never get this attitude. (Okay, there might be a drunk in a bar...) Most Italians, Germans, Belgians, etc., have always expressed their support for the United States and (gasp!) gratitude for our "moral leadership." You know, like continuing to pressure France to stop atomic testings. Oh, that's right, the Italians support the United States in it's attempt to have Iraq be held accountable for the UN mandates.

Oh, really? Well, don't get too excited. All those people probably didn't want to offend you or argue with you ... OR, you happen to know some kind of weird minority. Nobody likes to be manipulated.

I absolutely cannot believe the [censored] I am reading here!! Praising Bin Laden?? Willing to die for his cause??? Yep, tell that to the poor unsuspecting people that went to work in the twin towers on 9-11--well, the ones that survived! Men like this(Sadam included)are pure evil and probably on the brink of insanity! I am not exactly all hip about war either, but something has to be done..and soon! I'm not sure where you all are from, but if you had something like 9-11 happen close to you, I'm sure you would feel differently! It was a horrible day for me, personally, and I still have nightmares and I don't want myself or my loved ones to ever have to go thru anything like that again!

Talk about buying into the lie!!!!! I have never heard of such an unpatriotic opinion. To call yourself "unbiased" and "objective"..... I've never been more embarrassed by another american. I truly believe that if you live in a country it is because you embrace the underlying values that that country assures for you. As for me, I will always support the United States of America and I choose to live under the blanket of freedom provided to me by a free government and society. I fully support our leadership, that is voted into power by me. I will always support the armed forces of this country of which I was a part. I will always support the soldiers that fight for me and demonstrate the bravery that this country was built on. I suggest that if you don't, you go live in another country. I know how priveledged I am to live here and have the freedom to post here and express my opinions openly and honestly without fear of death or torture. I embrace the freedom to practice any religion I choose to without fear of death or torture because I don't follow the governments choice of god I believe in. I am able to work and make money in any amount that I want to without the fear that the governemnt or other leadership will step in and decide that I can't make that much and must give up some in order to not over power my government or other powers to be. So if your going to be "unbiased" or "objective", then I guess you'd prefer to live in a society that is governed by a dictator that will dictate everything you do any time you want to do it and take the risk of repercussions being doled out onto your family, loved ones and yourself. Like I said, I've never been more embarrassed than I am now of another american as I am of the one who spits in the face of our fore-fathers who saved us from a future of tyranny and desolation.
