  Re: "Why Do so many hate America"... or is it "Why does America hate US?"?
 
(...) I am willing to agree with this much. Would doing nothing as far as foreign policy goes be too difficult a course of action to follow for some reason?

  Re: Anti-Semitism and Anti-Americanism
 
(...) Ignore the neighbours for now. Think about how the current troubles started 13 months ago.

  Re: How do you spell Osama?
