Just a snap from the news today...
As the war in Afghanistan progressed, U.S. foreign policy alarmed a broad cross-section of European politicians and public figures. They complained that the United States was directing its anti-terror campaign without consulting its European partners.
In late December, support for widening the conflict beyond Afghanistan was slim, with just 32 percent of Europeans polled saying they supported attacking Iraq and Somalia if those countries supported terrorism.
Many European policymakers had expected American foreign policy would become much more multilateral after Sept. 11. Now, they fear that the clear superiority of the American military would make other nations irrelevant in U.S. policymakers' eyes.
Is this a surpirse to anyone in Europe?? Of course other nations are irrelevant in U.S. policymakers' eyes. Why should it be any different? It's not like you help when help is needed. But don't worry Europe. The next time you get yourself in trouble (which probably will not be long from now) the US will be there to bail you out... again. I'm so sick of it. Always complaining about US policy but to lazy or stupid to fix things themselfs. I'm starting to like Bush and his war monger advisors (can't believe I said that).
That's it for now... back to work.

It basicly is already.
Europe has a history of turning its back on issues until it becomes a big fat problem. Lets not touch Iraq until Saddam is storming through Europe. Than we'll call on the US for help. It's like a broken record. I can't believe Europe is not for removing Saddam - considering it would cost you nothing!

There was an interesting article in 'Tme' this week discussing the tendancy of the US to bomb places (Kosovo, Afghanistan etc) to remove people they don't like and then expect Europeans to police the aftermath.
Personally I feel that countries should only be making unilateral decisions about matters within their own borders. When one country attacks another, it affects us all.

does not matter. back to the point of the thread. bout time the US forgets about Europe. Besides, when the US wastes Iraq just be happy. It will give you something new to complain about. At least for the 2 days it takes. I give Iraq 2 days because I'm sure some of our bombs will miss and take out hospitals. The second day will be to hit the targets missed. No one is perfect!

I think you guys are overrating it... I know my kind, and that is not a 2...
he hasn't received a single reply to the actual topic that actually came from an offended Euro, so it's a 1/10 at best.

I'm starting to understand why MarkG does not allow OT posts to count towards total post counts.
