To Americans...

[Dani]

We can't all be Texans devoting our time to the justification of this war. Moreover, I'm getting quite annoyed by this typical notion that you cannot possibly be mistaken, and that the rest of the world is too dumb to understand the issue. Do you ever consider the possibility that you might be misled, ill-informed or just plain wrong, yourself? Don't you realize the USA would have had far more support if it wasn't for that stance?

Now now. Occhi is one of the "good americans", and doesn't really deserve the generalization, even if I've said in the past that despite his somewhat wide view of the situation, he does have some bias probably caused by just simply being an American (society, education, media etc. do mold pretty much all of us), same as I probably have a bias for being Euro.

Looking at the administration though. My mouth has been occasionalyl wide agape looking at the headlines just in the recent couple days. US issues stern warning to Syria, US issues same to Iran, US installs sanctions on Pakistan, US accuses Pakistan us nuclear proliferation. Us says Egypt is naughty. US accuses China of human rights violations. Etc.
Err say again? Will someone please give W's white house a clue about foreign policy? On how not alienate every one on the globe? OTOH it's kinda fun watching, waiting for when Igor Ivanov will snap.
