But then you're making them mad and breeding millions more of them. The
answer to this may be exactly what GWB is wanting to do...........give the
people a say in their own lives. Of course, this pisses off the religious
zealots who want to keep the population in lockdown, the Sunni's in Iraq who
used to be in power in Iraq and now are not and the those who think we are
exporting democracy at the point of a gun because they don't like our
policies. Funny though, I sure don't see the general population of
Afghanistan clamoring for the return of the Taliban. I also don't see a mass
uprising in Iraq in favor of returning Sadaam to power.

>Derek, I appreciate your writings here. It saying much about where the
problems are in my thoughts too.
I think we Europeans knows that "being big" allways have made problems when
trying to be bigger than
big:-) Big with weapons in hands are often showing up these weapons as their
only "brain" when conflicts are coming.
Our worlds problems, that started the first worldwar, was already coming in
1864, when Bismarck made the big, German nation under the hegemony of
Preussen. It was the oldnordic traditions with the God Wotan (or Odin in
Norwegian) that then again was showing up in the people. It's showing well
in "To an unknown God" from 1864, from the pen of Nietzsche, one of the
greatest German philosopher and writers in those times. The feeling of being
big was setting the standard of human thinking hundred of years back in time
in those days, maybe thousands. So the next 50 years was showing up with
more and more problems, first of all in the southern region of Europe, in
Austria and Hungary, where their minorities was suppressed (as the german
minority in Austria, after the first worldwars ending, where Hitler was born
and grown up, knowing the suppression on his own body). So the fatal shot in
Sarajevo from a Serbian, that killed the Habsburger prince 28. June 1914,
was just the drop that started it all in "old" modern times.
I'm seeing exactly the same pattern in American behavings in our modern
times as it was before the first world war. American sivilians generally
don't know what a war is on their own body without their own civil war that
was overupheating from the south with South Carolina in front, when Abraham
Lincoln was being President in 1860. The American nation was splitted in two
in those days with 11 states in the southern part and the rest in the
norhern part, as far as I can remember in my readings about America. But I
think most of the Americans are knowing these badly story very well.
As far as I can understand in readings and seeing, the human feelings
haven't changed much since then in north and south, after observe what's
happening in the last two president votings.
As Dejj wrote about the observations to the indians, I can see a nation of
different nations that really have big problems with trusting each other
after a long history-background. from their real homecountries that they
have travelled from. So maybe it's really understandable with their "shoot
first, then ask" menthality that's often showing up. The real American are
nearly nonexistencional(what a word, I don't know if it's correct written at
all) in America, as far as I can understand but I'm seeing Dejj have learned
to do some observations from them about the "new" Americans, that's just
seems to be German, French, Scandinavian etc. etc.
So, as far as I can understand, the only real Americans are the indians.
Hmm, I'm thinking too much when doing too much observations, it can be
dangerous when thinking so much too much:-) But never mind, I have had my
life, but our children and grandchildren shall take over the heredity and
environment from us in the coming world. So I mean it's well worth to do
something for them too, so maybe they can have real trust to other nations
too, for a better future.
