This is a good piece about America's so-called "allies" in Europe. The title is "America's Antagonistic Allies" The author is George Handlery

[url]http://www.politicallyright.com/article155.htm[/url]

This is a quote from the article:

"America and a number of her nominal allies, first and foremost the states of the Western section of the European continent, glance at the vicissitudes of the world through differently colored lenses. This makes popular attitudes fundamental. To many Americans who wish to qualify as part of the cultured cluster, Europe has a “snob-value.” America's view of Europe is determined by a prejudice that those sophisticated Continentals are worldly, politically wise and as such superior to barefooted US clod hoppers. To hell with the blunderers which made two world wars possible."

America does have a certain so-called "ally" that ought to be an object of great concern, but it is not located in Europe. This "ally" and its lobby have unparalleled control over the US government and media; it is the indirect (and possibly direct) cause of America's problems with terrorism; it spies on us and stabs us in the back whenever it suits its leaders to do so; and it costs US taxpayers billions of dollars in direct and indirect aid as well as collateral expenses. Furthermore, the nation in question is known for flouting international law and committing egregious abuses of basic human rights.

Which nation fits the above description? Take a guess.

The primary reason America needs allies at all is so we can shove our jewish-inspired global vision down the throat of third world countries. I'm no fan of Bush but the greatest thing he has done for this country is isolate us from our so-called allies. Next time someone like Milosovic is demonized by America, the rest of the world will simply say, "screw you America, do your own dirty work."

The Democrats know this and that is the only reason they are so eager to repair foriegn relations. Wes Clark has even said as much.

IF America's survival we're really threatened, I believe the Europeans would come to our aid. That's good enough for me, if the Europeans don't support our ill-defined excursions I don't blame them.
