You guys are crackin' me up. I can never pick which is my favorite Python movie - The Holy Grail or The Life Of Brian.

They are both outstandingly witty and humorous.

They are tied for first, IMO.

Great article ... the Monty Python thing is perfect. Mr. Baker has unfortunately omitted one major additional point, which is that more than a two million refugees have peacefully returned to Afghanistan and Iraq. This fact is even corroborated by the UN and other NGO refugee agencies, and studiously ignored by the mainstream press. It belongs on Mr. Baker's list.

We have lost more friends in the past two decades than any country in the world

What true friend that we had, did we lose in the lat 20 years? I can think of plenty new ones that we've made.

Do you write for Le Monde?

We haven't lost any 'true friends' but we sure lose the fair weather friends across Europe as if they were leaves falling from trees.

Le Monde? Isn't that a newspaper in France?

Read my profile page.
