To: Atlantic Bridge
Today many Germans believe into a caricature that has nothing to do with the realities. They see America somehow as a christian theocracy with a Walt-Disney-justice that raids other countries because of Halliburton. Of course there are enough informed Germans who are staunch friends of the US, but the public mainstream goes a different way. Nothing personal, but what you're telling me here is that there's a significant fraction of the German public that is essentially delusional. In the face of that, I don't know that there's much we here on the other side of the Atlantic can do to improve things, unless you want us to start carpet-bombing you all with thorazine or something. I don't deny there's a problem, but it sounds like the solution is all on the German end of things...
