    If you heard any of the just released Kennedy tapes from 40 years ago - He pretty much the French were being ass hole then too. Something never change. As far as Germany, I just don't understand why anyone really cares.

              Wow. I was pretty dismissive of Rumsfeld's statement and then the French finance minister said "I wanted to remind everyone that this 'old Europe' has resilience, and is capable of bouncing back. And it will show it, in time."

              Bouncing back? From what? Is Rumsfeld right?

                There's an old expression that says "Only the truth hurt." and by saying how hurt the french and german are it must be damned true.
                By the way, another french minister said that france has always shown resilience, yeah right; remember the french milicia sucking the gestapo's dick??? No wonder they are AGAIN in bed with the germans today.
                I'm very happy I took my family out of that miserable country, anyways in 20 years it won't be called france anymore it will be The Islamic Republic of France
                Here is what RUMSFELD is:

                "In 1984, Donald Rumsfeld was in a position to draw the world?s attention to Saddam?s chemical threat. He was in Baghdad as the UN concluded that chemical weapons had been used against Iran. He was armed with a fresh communication from the State Department that it had ?available evidence? Iraq was using chemical weapons. But Rumsfeld said nothing.

                Washington now speaks of Saddam?s threat and the consequences of a failure to act. Despite the fact that the administration has failed to provide even a shred of concrete proof that Iraq has links to Al Qaeda or has resumed production of chemical or biological agents, Rumsfeld insists that ?the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.?

                But there is evidence of the absence of Donald Rumsfeld?s voice at the very moment when Iraq?s alleged threat to international security first emerged. And in this case, the evidence of absence is indeed evidence. "

                full article:

                http://www.commondreams.org/views02/0802-01.htm

                At that time it was OK, because in the interest of the USA ( Iran was the problem).

                So France and Germany are at least expressing an honest opinion, and do not want to be another Blair ( Bush's brownie...)
                I know that Asspimple is stoopid ... As he says, it is a FACT !

                But I can't figure out how he can breathe or type , at the same time ....

                  the fact that I'm not a jew? or the fact that I'm not a bigot?

                    You are really a dumbfuck. Who cares about Germany????
                    Don't you know that Germany alone provides 75% of the EU's budget.
                    Germany is the world's third most economically powerful country

                    You are a true American dumbfuck

                        The Euro is still strong, but that i not done by the German. High unemployement rate, bad economy etc.

                        The euro is high and solid because the Dutch, and the scandinavian countries are doing very well....

                          I agree with one of the previous posts. Create a Fortress North America. Lock the borders, pull all troops back, stop all "donations". How soon untill the rest of the world turns on itself?

                          Everytime there is a large disaster in some other country in the world, North America is the first to send people, food, and money. When large forest fires, tornados, earthquakes, hurricans hit the US, who comes over to help? Nobody.

                          If the US was really hell bent on world domination, all they need to do is stop helping for a few years, and then mop up the giant mess these 2-bit dictators would leave behind.

I also noticed such comments are generally made by people that have never served a day in the armed forces.

                            The only reason baby bush wants to go to war is to vindicate his father and drag attenion away from the fact that since he has been elected the countrys economy has gone down the crapper.

                                  OK - I'm a Amercan dumbfuck, or moron if your prefer... this is getting a little old - it makes you sound uneducated.

                                  As far as the Iraq situation is concerned - I don't think the US needs Germany, and I don't think many Americans even expect Germany to back the US. Remember - what these governments are saying in public today - isn't necessarly the way it will end up.... it rarely is.

                                  But... Peace on you anyway!

                                        You know zero about my past and sound like an extremely naive person. If you really want to sound intelligent don't attack others while basing your argument on political bias. You are so obviously partisan. And solely blaming a president for the country's economic woes is ignorant.

                                        Actually many in the foreign mainstream think we are arrogant assholes because of our world presence... I know that might hurt your ego a bit.

                                        Many of us have served this country. That doesn't mean we all think the way you do. Does that come as a shock?

                                          The euro is high and solid because the Dutch, and the scandinavian countries are doing very well....

                                          But will it remain that way?
                                          The Euro is not a 'floating' currency. It is artificially set at a certain level. What will happen when these new poor countries from Eastern Europe enter? Looks like economic disaster in the short term, unless we can exploit these new markets. Put up heavy tradetolls from non-EU countries.

                                          Or even worse, what happens when/if Turkey is allowed into the EU?
                                          Politicians say they have to let Turkey in to prevent extremists to gain more power in Turkey, but who really wants millions and millions of Turks moving around in a borderless Europe?

                                          I even heard of some EU Politicians saying that they wouldn't rule out the possibility of getting North African countries like Marocco etc join the EU.....

                                          This expansion is happening too fast.
                                          It will be fuel to the rightwing movement spreading through Europe.

                                            You have N. Korea pulling out of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty and taking out all their camera's from their nuclear locations. In addition, no inspectors. Then they threaten the US that they will increase missle tests, and build nuclear weapons if they choose to.

                                            Then we have Iraq, which has allowed inspectors in their country, denied any building of weapons, and says they won't build any weapons.

                                            Who is US gonna attack? Iraq.

                                            Those American's seem to get smarter everyday! What idiots. I think the US needs a regime change. They act like world police, actually, world criminals would better suit them.

                                              The new countries joining the EU are not joining the Euro at the same time, that will come later, if at all.

                                              Hasn't Turkey's membership been delayed tho ? I think that's further down the road, prolly, if truth be told, for the reasons you mention.

Remember - what these governments are saying in public today - isn't necessarly the way it will end up.... it rarely is.

                                                        Admitting I have no actual figures...

                                                        I'd say it's a safe bet that America hasn't been paid half of what it was promised during the first one.

                                                        Bush has already said - with or without them... this really isn't about the money.

If you really want to sound intelligent don't attack others while basing your argument on political bias. You are so obviously partisan. And solely blaming a president for the country's economic woes is ignorant.

                                                          I do believe it was a political statement that started this thread. Perhaps you are the one that is niave or just confused? As for being partisan , arent we all? Bush's Dad and Reagen both got elected by blaming the countrys problems on the president before them. Why isnt it this guys fault??

                                                            I have a feeling Rumsfeld is getting smacked around the Oval Office right about now. I don't think that was official policy. He has a tendency to run off at the mouth and speak HIS mind, policy be damned.

                                                              Webby, Jammy, Others-

                                                              I see you make reference to their not being much support for the war. I am assuming you come from somewhere outside the US. What I dont think you understand is that the US doesnt really care what anyone outside the US has to say about the war. Why would we care? Bush went to the UN and offered to let it not be irrelevant. He did that as a favor to countries like yours but not because he was going to take advice from you.
                                                              What I am trying to say and not be too arrogant is that your opinion nor the opinions of your govenment really matter to the US.
                                                              Decisions in Europe to increase the welfare state and decrease military spending to around 1% makes Europe and other countries irrelevant. The US has the most powerful military ever seen on this planet and we all pay big bucks for it. So personally if it used to blow some punk out of his throne then so be it.

                                                                The consensus amongst many of the US webmasters who have posted in this thread seems to be that Bush should do whatever the fuck he pleases and not ask his allies for support in invading an Arab country.

                                                                                    "The United States ranks last among the world's 28 top foreign aid donor countries, and its foreign assistance levels have dropped dramatically over the past 10 years, according to a United Nations report released this week"

                                                                                    The United States does actually donate the second highest amount after Japan, but per capita amount is pathetic
                                                                                    Who cares what's donated per capita?

                                                                                    That's like trying to cash a check based on your conversion ratio instead of the actual number of sales.

                                                                                    We should take our crappy per capita donations and keep them from now on. Try feeding people by telling them, "Well, there's not a lot of food here, but per person that donated, it's a feast!"

Why because Bush and his cabinet say Iraq has weapons, that no one can find, they can provide no proof of or will provide no proof of.

                                                                                              I think it takes a little more proof than that, if you want to start a war.
                                                                                              Of course I take Bush's word over Saddam's. Anyone who doesn't would have to be a rabid anti american zealot with no common sense. But it really has nothing to do with who you trust more. The UN resolution put the ball in Saddams court. He has to prove he has no weapons of mass destruction or else basically. Though the resolution doesn't say what or else means. Saying the US has to prove Saddam has wmds is bullshit. Saddam has to prove to the inspectors that he does not. The US doesn't have to prove anything.
