(political?) Dear all, it is going bad! Mr. Bush - the winner of the USA elections, the man chosen by (nearly) half of the Amercians, has managed to produce a civilian war in a country, where he sent his military. Tens if not hundreds of people are killed EVERY day! Human beings like you or me. This is one the very rare cases of a superpover sending its military to occupy a state after the second world war... The guy and his country is bound to that mess for a long, LONG time. And the same guy took care of taking the USA out of the so called "western values" by his concentration camps and accepting the torture. Even in the legistlation of the USA there seems to be something like "light torture" nowadays... Horrible! To me the modern USA represents a new historical period of gettig out of the the times of the so called Enlightment, the time where human rights were taken seriously. And now we have come back to the Dark Ages again? Or? Arto To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
