Yes, sure, you´re right. BUT, this is not an issue I should consider. If I were eligible to vote (= being American), I certainly would consider all you said. But I am not, and I -forgive me- don´t feel affected a lot by your taxes or military spending. This election is not so important that it would be worth to mention on a discussion about the forced landing of a Lufthansa jet on Cyprus by the IDF. Take care, and have a successful day on Nov. 2nd.
We have 25k military in your country. You don't feel effected by that?
