Europe in general, and France and Germany in particular, are heading for oblivion.

Germany purged itself of militant nationalism after WWII but in the process purged itself of rational thought as well.

A nation that gave the world so much of the arts, science, and literature had gotten emeshed in the hell of Naziism...and coming out of this mess emerged as just a pathetic socialistic wreck.

Opponents of the US-led invasion of Iraq nearly came to blows in Berlin Saturday with pro-US demonstrators accusing them of supporting "terrorism" and tolerating Saddam Hussein.

Must be a mistranslation for "pointing out that they were in fact."

Sami Ramadani, an Iraqi sociologist exiled to London in 1979, told the conference there were daily acts of resistance to the American presence in Iraq, but only terrorist acts made headlines.

"If somebody kills your father or your brother, it's normal to take up arms," said Ramadani, an opponent of both Saddam and the US presence.

He said the way to get rid of Saddam Hussein's Baath Party regime was not American intervention.

I wonder if Mr. Ramadani realizes that when he had the chance to stand-up for Iraq, and against Saddam, he ran to Britain. So I wonder exactly what the alternatives to the invasion were when Iraqi-patriots aren't willing to hang tough?

über Zeit sprach jemand oben. These folks must be freinds or relatives of a lot of the German soldiers that have vocalized support to our troops over there. A lot of these soldiers have saluted our troops every time they come across one who is wearing an Iraqi Freedom badge. They have been doing this in direct violation of orders not to salute.

"The US has its own political and strategic agenda to dominate the region, they have only brought instability."

Leftists love to praise "stability." It's a code for supporting dictators like Saddam, whose governments are often very "stable."

We don't hate the Americans and we condemn suicide bombings against civilians, but we believe the resistance (against US forces) is legitimate," said conference organiser Barbara Fuchs, a member of the anti-globalisation movement Attac

I wish someone would make it clear to the inept thinkers and state simply:

"Either you are with us, or you are against us".

That comment makes no sense. They condemn the suicide bombings that are the very same "resistance" they support?

"we believe the resistance is legitimate"

How can a person with a brain believe that ..?? It boggles the mind. Everytime we arrest these people - they are from several other different countries - they're not Iraqis.

But .. these people come to the table with a grudge against us in the first place which makes feeding them disinformation so easy.

HA! HA! HA! Idiots, They aren't even envolved with Iraq. I wonder what kind of "blows" the Germs will come to when they debate whether or not to become an Islamic State?

"We need time." he said. "When we no longer need the Americans, we'll push them over the border."

uh...yeah right. We'll leave when we're damn good and ready and not before. We might even decide to build a base or two. Ungrateful Iraqi scum...

We are currently in favor of pushing them into Syria, but it may be more beneficial for us to push them into Iran. Its too early to tell.

Spoken like a true a$$hole.... an unappreciative, self deluding a$$hole...

I'm convinced there are enough worthy Iraqis in Iraq to justify our sacrifices --- but they will have to kill a lot more of their stupid "cousins" before the place can settle down and join the current century......

The majority of Germans, French, Spanish, Dutch and like minded bastards, will be NO help to the Iraqi people..

With Germany, what's old is new once more.

They don't give a rats butt about the Iraq people, they want another corrupt government to make a deal with.

" are trying to change Iraqi culture."


If that culture were in a petri dish, bleach would have been added long ago.

Sounds great to me! Hurry up Iraq and get your stuff together, then push us over the border.

Iran border, Syria border, does not matter much to me!

Friends, it's all of western Europe (not only the "frogs"). We can promote a change of attitude in western Europe only by letting people in all of those countries (including France, Germany, Italy, Britain, Spain--all) know that we are onto their anti-American majority sentiment. If you've noticed that people in those countries (and more) are trying to deny that any such majority sentiment exists, you've noticed the nerve that we need to touch in order to get them to promote pro-American attitudes in their own countries.

We call on the Americans to leave Iraq because they are turning the country into utter chaos," said Sheikh Hadi al-Khalissi of Iraq's National Founding Congress (INFC). "They are destroying Iraq and its oil resources and are trying to change Iraqi culture."

Let me guess, this is a bad thing, right.
