The reason for that is, there is no difference between he US and its purported foes.

Post #266,934 by jake123 9/7/06 2:05:52 PM Reply	No, a bigger army That is part of it. The main point is that if the US gov feels free to torture people then everyone in the West needs to be concerned because we will all be painted by the same brush. To avoid this, other Western democracies will need to start distancing themselves from US strategic goals and interests, and do so quite publically. This will further enhance the paranoia of Thems Thats In Charge in the US, and will drive them to more extremism... and will eventually have a knock on effect on the lives of the US citizenry as a whole. --\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n* Jack Troughton jake at consultron.ca \n [link\|http://consultron.ca\|http://consultron.ca] [link\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca] \n Kingston Ontario Canada [link\|news://news.consultron.ca\|news://news.consultron.ca] *\n-------------------------------------------------------------------

Why do you think Der Berk is on the stump, rousing the rabble with that Same Ol' Rovian Crap that allegedly got him "elected" in the first place? Hint: Because there's a very good chance he'll lose the House, and a fair-to-slight chance he'll lose the Senate as well. Seems the US populace may distance itself from US strategic goals and interests, and do so quite publically. jb4 "So don't pay attention to the approval ratings that say 68% of Americans disapprove of the job this man is doing.

We rank differently on [link\|http://www.diehardindian.com/overview/military.htm\|other scales], but the one we dominate above all others is military spending. Cheers, Scott.
