You people need to know one thing: I am a European.

I am a Dutchman living in the Netherlands. The US liberated Europe at the cost of 405.000 casualties. But instead of being eternaly greatful, the Eurowhinies (yes, Eurobashing is allowed on my threads, if you let me join in!) hate the US.

Strangely I love the USA much more then I love Holland, and this since I was a kid. And I am an American Republican at heart (that is why I post here). I do not agree with the rest of Europe. Europeans are blind to what is killing them, they proved that in 1930's and kept it up until Hitler marched through Europe.

Now the same thing is happening again (Saddam, Arafat). But 9/11 made a lot of people to open their eyes, the leftists elites are no longer in complete control. The elections proved that in Denmark and Portugal, and on May 15 they will prove it here: a landslide to the right! A lot of people over here are sick and tired of the lies from the left too.

(Did anyone of you think I would approve/take part of Eurobashing when you did read the first sentence?)

You are right knighthawk, we in america see so much america bashing from the leftists in power in Europe that we tend to lump all Europeans into the same group. We forget that america is only fractionally further to the right than europe, and that we have only just come back into the light after 8 years of Clinton. I believe that european politics tends to lag american politics by several years, so that with a move to the right in america as is now obvious, we will soon see more politians on the right taking power in europe.

Re:#25, While I do some of that Eurobashing, I usually try to add qualifiers or descriptors such as "elite" or "illuminatti" because I fully realize that many citizens of European Nations do not endorse the failed policies of the left. I believe that in many cases these citizens are shouted down or denied a platform to publish their views by the same leftist political establishment. To these citizens I say: it's not you I'm ttalking about, and I see that you have as much difficulty discrediting the left wing wackos there as we do in America, if not more.

I appreciate the good will any European citizen has toward the U.S.A., and I hope to see an increase in Nationalism in Europe as well as the U.S.A. I do not believe that Frenchmen should be interchangeable with Danes, or Germans, or Dutchmen ect. All can be proud of the great accomplishments of their respective culture, citizens, and Nations. (Same for us Americans) Blenderizing everybody into follow the leader leftthink will endanger Europe additionally. I am grateful that the U.S. has begun to move away from this approval seeking silde. I wish you Europeans good fortune. NP
