world politics

From Giles, on Fri, 06 Dec 2002 17:33:38 GMT (in response to: world politics !?)

Not all british belive the propaganda spread by america.

blair is not the type of politician I like and i like a lot of British think he is wrong to follow bush.

Yes we had an Empire, the worlds biggest and yes we did abuse the people of that Empire. That is part of why we lost the Empire. However, the British Commonwealth (ie. the commonwealth games where about 70 countries compete) still wish to remain in the commonwealth, so i don't we did so badly afterall (otherwise why would they stay in the commonwelath). I like to think we have learned something from the Empire, and maybe we can do some good. The British way is not to bomb the shit out of a country, but to win the hearts and minds of the population so they will help, unlike america.

That is why Larance of Arabia, did so well, etc. Please don't think we like americans, like all nations some are good and some are wankers.

I myself prefer the Europeans to the americans, (part of the reason i speak a little German and Norwegian)

(Ich spreche ein wenig Deutsch und Norwegisch). (Jeg snakke lite Norsk og Tysk). And americans speak american not English.

Bis später Auf wiedersehen.
