Didn't you know? Our leaders here in the USA -think- they can control the entire world and force the entire world to their way of thinking if the other country doesn't do as they asked. Our politicians now are nothing more than a bunch of flunkies only supporting the lobbyist/special interest group that can bribe (I mean contribute to) them the most. Money talks, bulls**t walks.

It makes you realise just why so many people in the world say that they hate America. But they have it wrong, of course. This hatred should not be directed at the American public but at the American government. Add to this the UK government because they are as bad. The people of these countries are not the problem of course, we are both a good friendly people.
I believe that the public must take some responsibility for it's government. This is an evolutionary challenge for civilization in general. The more so in a democracy. There are millions of good decent Americans but there are also millions of 'not so good and decent' ones. These are the conditions that prevail. Alas and for shame, Jerome
