You think war is the only way ? You think US-american have the > right for being world-police ? .... No, I don't think war is the only way. As for the US-American (sic) having the right to be the world police, I don't care much for that notion either. I am a firm believer that the US should withdraw from NATO and let the europeans deal with their own issues. Might as well withdraw from the United Nations as well, as it most certainly as become as weak as the United League ever was. > > Germany's histories regarding innocent life are not exactly > > something to brag about; however I'm not posting rants regarding Hitler > > and the Holocaust and 6 million Jews that were murdered.

Wasn't you chancellor just returned to power based on the anti-americanism in germany? Pretty much sums up the mind set of the voters in that election. -- Dallam Wych [EMAIL PROTECTED] 60B9 5A73 E6B8 F087 66A4 Registered User #213656 942D F550 F70D C2FE 8EFB http://counter.li.org
