I would understand some Germans hating us for our brutality during WWII against them. However, they hate us for liberating them from the Nazi's, standing up to the USSR to keep them free and helping them get the East back. It was Mr. Reagan who said, "Mr. Gorbochev, Tear down that wall." But it is America they hate, not the USSR. It is Ronald Reagan they dispise, not Gorby.

And for this, I say to German people, "You can go to H."

As to France, where can we begin. Is there a more self-centered nation on earth - an prouder nation with not much to be proud about? Only twice in 1000 years have they produced true heroes that all the world knows: Joan de Arc and Napoleon. Prior to that, the only hero they had, Vercingetorix, established a French tradition by losing his nation to Caesar.

Now they have produced Chirac, mayor of Paris. His bribe taking is renown. He even betrayed one of France's oldest and most loyal allies for a few shekels from the ME.

The French!

Yep. Perhaps it is because America had done everything it could to hurt Russia in the past?
I do not credit America with bringing down the Soviet Union. In fact, all America did was bark.
The people brought down the Soviet Union for they were tired of the dictatorship.

Bad analaogy. The bank's money is not that guy's to give.

If a guy comes up to you and offers you money, and you take it, is that criminal stealing? No, because it's his money to give. Likewise, if he asks you not to take his money, but to take his life, it is his life to give.

IMHO, the guy needs rehabilitation. If someone eats another human, whether he is sane in other respects or not, he needs to be rehabilitated so that he won't eat anyone else. It's a destructive fetish, that he needs to get over. However it is probably not something he can control, and the other guy asked to be eaten, it was his fantasy too. Maybe he was bored with life, maybe he was depressed and wanted to feel that his body was going to do something good after he died, maybe he has intense S&M fantasies. Whatever reason he did it, he asked someone to kill him and they did. I think the cannibal needs to be helped, so that he doesn't feel the need to eat people, but he didn't force the other guy, and since the other guys body was his to give, I don't think it's anyone elses business. What's done between 2 consenting adults in private is their business alone, IMHO. I would rehabilitate him based on his wants, rather than his actions. It cannot be wrong to have a desire for something, because it is not their fault, but when it is destructive to society, rehabilitation to remove it seems appropriate. However his actions were with someone who consented, and so I don't agree that he should be pubnished for it, but rehabilitated for the underlying cause.

Double-bull. First, we don't hate you for this. Second, the USSR has done at least as much as you and paid a much higher bloodtoll, since directly attacked.

Reagan was a mad old actor. Do I despise him? Yes, somehow I do, but that's personal, not national, and it has nothing to do with his speech in front of the wall. Do I hate the current US administration? Yes again. Does this mean I hate the USA? No.

And for what would I despise Gorby? Reagan demanded to tear down the wall. Words. Gorby has greatly helped to get it done. Deeds.

No I won't apply for a green card.

About conscenting, there was this case, years away now, where a young woman, obviously suffering from severe depression, asked a parking lot man to kill her. After lots of discussion he did it. He got lots of years in prison.

The correct approach would have been to (doh) direct her to a psychiatrist.

Some journalists tried to make a romantic nostalgic sweet self destruction fairy tale out of it.

However the balding head of the parking lot guy and his absolute lack of any "romeo" features kind of ruined their romantic plan. Now he's out of jail after winning parole (?) and noone gives him a job to the "sinister lover/mercyful killer".

IIRC the legal definition of sanity is "able to distinguish right from wrong".

Sir Ralph: More crap from modern deluded Germans. If you have been following my posts here for some time, I am one of the very few Americans who are truly sorry for what we did during WWII and would like for us to formally apologize to Germany.

I, for my entire life, supported a free, unified Germany. I never thought it would happen. But it is clear that we Americans had a great deal to do with keeping Germany free and for causing the collapse of communism in the East.

And it is me and other Americans like me that you hate?

This is too much.

To summarize your point, the Germans in general can go to hell because some of them aren't showing enough gratitude? And hate is not too strong a word for German feelings on the U.S? I'd like to see you back up some of your claims, especially the claim that modern day Germans hate you or your country for getting rid of the Nazis. If you can prove this in some way or another, it would be truly remarkable. But if you can't, and assuming you're actually serious about this, I'd say you're the one showing a hateful approach.

Monk, We did a lot for the German people since 1945. Think of the Marshall Plan. Think of our maintaining a large army there for 50 years to hold off the Bear. Think of our global resistance to communism that gave Germany back its Eastern territories.

We asked for nothing in return until we were attacked on 9/11. We then asked for Germany's support. What did we get? We got a German election campaign based on anti-Americanism. Our president was bashed, not by the lunatic fringe of Germany, but by the German government itself!!!!!!! Then, when push came to shove at the UN, Germany is the leader (with France) of the opposition to the US.

Such actions are not worthy of an ally, a friend or a country that owes us so much.

There is a saying, is there not, that no good deed goes unpunished. Well Germany has shown the truth of that statement -- in spades.

Actually Ned, NATO gave America its' support. Guess who rebuffed them? That's right....The United States.

I'm glad though....It was one of many events which would eventually give tide to a huge wave of anti-americanism around the world
