This is very long but very important.

excellent article. Just came nack from Europe yesterday and according to my observations, totally on the money.
America has to get out of NATO and seek new alliances. Anyone other than France, Germany and Belgium. Their "new" defence pact may seem palatable to the mainstream european citizen, however, no one has told them yet about the high costs of building that military.
New Taxes such as defense tax, new EU membership taxes etc. are coming. Let's disasociate ourself militarily from the EUrinals, let them get what they wish for. It doesn't matter anyway, no matter what we do, we will be at fault.

"Why is the USA casually accused of "fascism," when it is a land that has never known a dictator over the course of two centuries, while Europe has been busy making troops of them?"

Great line...and so true. Not only that, but how many "forms" of governments have the Europeans tried...and they still can't get it right. Now, it's the EU that is suppose to save them. For a region that is so old and mature, they sure are having a hard time getting their *hit together. Ahh...must be the USA's fault.

"According to a SOFRES survey of May 2000, only 10 percent of French feel dislike for the U.S. After September 11, according to another poll, 52 percent of French people interviewed said they had always felt warmly toward the U.S., against 32 percent who said the opposite. Historian Michel Winock concludes that "anti-Americanism is not an attitude of the average French person; it is typical of a certain segment of the elites."

When I was in Paris last, most French people were quite nice to me (and it was PARIS). I almost got mugged by some Muslims, however.

"In the best cases, the Ameriphobes put the jihadists and those who would resist them on an equal plane, not pronouncing in favor of either. Hundreds of thousands of pacifists demonstrated on October 14, 2001 brandishing banners: "No to Terrorism. No to War." Which is about as intelligent as: "No to Illness. No to Medicine."

Very funny. Very good post.

Outstanding-wish I could say more, but that one word pretty much sums it up.

On September 16, delegates from the Confédération Générale du Travail, the communist trade union, booed a speaker who called for three minutes of silence in memory of the murdered Americans. Followers of Jean-Marie Le Pen on Europe's extreme right celebrated with champagne in offices of the National Front as they watched televised images of the Twin Towers collapsing.

That's why I like living in America. As the prevailing winds blow east, I am secure in the knowledge that sometime next week, they'll be inhaling my flatulence.

American "unilateralism" is the consequence--not the cause--of the diminished power of the other nations.

A huge point, and undoubtedly true. Geo-politics, like nature, abhors a vacuum.

The U. S. cannot afford to have a nation like China, or a collection of rogue states, fill the void left by the crumbling European empires (of which the Soviet Union was only the most recent example). While the other Democracies of the world have decided to turn inward and pour their money into their own welfare-state bureaucracies, someone had to step in to patrol the borders.

This is an outstanding article. A long, but MUST read.

The bottom line is, the socialist/communist elites of Europe, AND America, have ALWAYS hated us. Envy is such an ugly trait.

This French author, somehow, some way, knows the truth. We will be overrun by fanatical Islamic jihadists, unless we stand our ground NOW and fight for all we're worth. Are we up to it? God almighty, I hope so.

The day after 9/11, Le Parisien-Aujourd'hui published an account of the jubilant atmosphere the previous evening in the eighteenth arrondissement of Paris, home to a large Muslim community. "Bin Laden will nail all of you!" was among the more moderate remarks hurled at passersby who didn't appear to be North African. Or: "I'm going to celebrate big time tonight! Those guys were real heroes. That'll teach those American bastards--and all you French are next!"

Snippets of this sort were ignored by almost all media.

Yes, let's ignore it. They did not really mean it. They are only after the Jews. And Americans. They deserved it anyway. Everybody else are totally safe. </sarcasm>

I call it a willful and malicious blindness.
