Brian I notice your point and I think that Africa is where Africa would be today anyway had we not interfered I often find myself wondering if there should be an international administrative force excluding the Americans who could go back into these countries and set up the infrastructure again. |

I fear America more than many other Countries. A Nation of Misfits who left Europe, Asia and Africa, many because they didn't like the Politics of their Home Nation, and now their descendants are trying to force their views on the rest of us. I would like to know 1) Who appointed them to be the International Police Force? and 2) Why haven't they captured Osama Bin Liner yet? 3) Why is it that they have not won a War since the American Civil War when they were fighting against each other? We all know about Viet Nam, they failed in Somalia, they were 2 years late entering both World Wars, yet to hear them one would think that they have single handedly subdued all the Tyrants who ever lived. The UN will not allow a War simply to change the Governing Body of a Country |

The answer to "Granpa Jim GC Ptfg" about the Americans ,is simple.They have the "FirePower" The "ManPower" But,Unfortunately,They have,nt got the "Brainpower".Re-The problem of Race Relations,What about "India" and the "Caste"System operated there?and in the "Islamic Countries" where they have the "Religeous Police" and they have more power than the Ordinary ones?.Best wishes to all.Hal. |

Harold, Surely it all comes down to one group trying to dominate and force their own ideals on the rest of society. Doesn't matter whether the motivation is Financial, Spiritual, Psychological, or whatever. The greatest gift God gave to mankind is "The freedom of choice". |

Hal, Except for a favoured few there never has been true freedom of choice in this country. If we weren't enslaved by Invaders we were Pawns in the King's Chess Game against his Relatives. Then we were kept in line as wage slaves dependant on our Employers for life itself. Now we are at the mercy of Governments which, whatever anyone says, kowtow to the Moneyed Ones. But if we keep on plugging on maybe our Grandchildren will be freer. It is a worthwhile objective. Jim |
