It really makes it sound like you think of US being far better than the other countries... which again is getting closely familiar to something we've been discussing here...

"...together with belligerent nationalism."

Sorry you think it sound arrogant. That's not where I'm come at it from. If you read what I was triing to say.
It's easy to be on the side line and take potshots at anyone who is triing their best to help or fix a problem. I remember hearing on the news,bb's and else where how the US wasn't doing anything for the middle east peace process since Pres. Bush came into office. But it's seems to be easyer to critize than be a postive force in the world. Not one Europen country stepped in. I thought that it might of been a good idea by Pres. Bush to have us step back and let the Arab countries and Iseral to slove their problems. Of course that didn't work. Europe is seems lately to be critizing the US for everything we try to do. Well then, come up Europe. Lets try some of your ideas. I heard plenty of how wrong we are on these BB's. Do something, don't just talk about. I for one as a taxpayer would like to see Europes taxpayer take on some of these responibles. After all, that's why the ECU was setup. We can use some help.

Heheheh Firball, you need to swat up on some geography. While the US gets involved in the 'high profile' areas (read those that make CNN headlines) the rest of the world gets its 'hands dirty' on a regular basis.

Take NZ for example, we have peacekeepers all over, Afghanistan, Iraq, East Timor, Cambodia, we're about to send some to the Solomons, theres a huge list of stuff we're involved in and have been involved yet, yet we're only a nation of 3 million.

A quote I got on A&E from an elderly Austrian excusing away his countrymens' participation in the Holocaust:

"When you're surrounded by wolves, it's best to howl with the pack!"

Hey ... if you want all the lyrics to all the songs you can get `em at Arlonet.

But don't get yer panties in a wad and call Joe Patriot a Fascist when you're feelin' sorta Finnish. I figure, you being one of the neglected, rejected, spit on and dejected ones ... you'd think that was a bit overboard. But ya don't, apparently.

But hey ... it's an excuse to pop a top, I suppose.

Have a beer.

"Spit on" don't got a "ected" at the end. Some variation on "expectorated" may work, but it's beyond me. Man, writing peace songs gotta be hard.

Fishu, I think you are a bit paranoid, ( we will assimilate you ) or maybe a little too obsessed with the USA.

Have a nice long sauna and you will feel better

I only stopped the hijack attempt by eliminating the forum terrorist.
