^agreed.

The US isn't exactly making themselves loved - not in Europe, not in Asia, not in the middle-east, not anywhere. Hell, even in your own country lots of people don's support the foreign policy!

The only reason some of our more misguided politicians (Blair, Balkenende) support US policy is because they want to play with the big boys - something which will cost them dearly in the next elections.

Andy, you say that we shouldn't talk about US politics? Gladly! As soon as you stop making policy or going to war without consulting your allies. You will gladly accept the brownnosing of our politicians and the support of our armies, yet when it comes to freedom of speech....

We have a saying in The Netherlands: De hoogste bomen vangen de meeste wind; The tallest trees endure the strongest winds. Griping goes up, not down.

We did consult our allies, and they didn't want to help out. I'm sorry, but if my friends said no to getting together and jumping some rotten bastard who was dealing drugs to the neighborhood kids, I'd still run over there and beat the shit out of him. Then I'd tell my pussy friends that they're a bunch of fucking cowards.

We might be allies, but that doesn't give you a right to dictate what we do.

None-the-less, we have to placate you bastards. We'd hate for you to stop buying our goods. God knows that your economies aren't going anywhere.

[quote="RICoder"]...the UN and the oil for food scandal...[/wuote]

America did have a part in that (even though we where smaller players). Companies such as Cheney's Halliburton and Schlumberger, among others, either directly or through trading companies in European countries such as France and Russia, had a hand in getting oil for "food."

I think it's funny that the when it comes down to it, the UN is full of shit. For all their bitching about the universal declaration of human rights and all that, when someone actually does something, they oppose the action.
