As far as I know Rumsfield is the first American official to say publicly to a country with plans to harm us by non-military means that we will take our dollars elsewhere. It did not take Belgium long to get the message. I hope we continue this policy.

Anyone who insults or threatens the US is entitled to their freedom of speech, but not to our money. Period. Full stop. End of sentence and of aid!

Good to see adults are in charge (after eight years of kids stuff from the Clintons).

I agree. Rummy finally showed the backbone we need. I think we should pull the funding anyway, as punishment for past anti-American behavior.
