It seems not all Europeans are spineless.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation.

that about sums it up....they were the same people who refused to help ethiopia during the "League of Nations". Europe will only help if THEY are the ones being attacked. Ask France.

Sorry I could only make you chuckle. Since many of your posts make me laugh until I cry, I feel I've let you down.  :frown:

All european countries want to help USA. Some want to help you to attack Iraq, others want to help you to stay out of a stupid war. :grin:
Isn't the public opinion in USA also divided?

Clever, i see you got a digital camera for X-mas, congrats....

Phluck, i don't have numbers and didn't intend on it to be used as a concrete statement. Some of you foreigners think that 99% of the US is against the war. I am in fact against a war with Iraq. I think there is a better way to expell Saddam.

Here's a survey from ABC. Rest assured ABC has made every effort to make the numbers show that Americans are against the war. You know there is strong support of the war in America if ABC, in all its glory, cannot twist the numbers to show we're against it.

Favor Military Action Against Iraq: 56% (8/29)

Sorry that the information is from last August.

Did you read the whole article? Only 39% would favor an attack if our allies opposed it.

Most of the American news I've watched seems to favor the war, and at best is neutral.  CNN, Fox, ABC, CBS, etc

On the other hand, Canadian news is full of antiwar bias.  :cool:

I'm not so sure, although the news media has a liberal/socialist bias, they are also in the news business and hence I'm sure they see the $$$ for reporting on the war.

To call humans 'rational beings' does injustice to the term, 'rational.'  Humans are capable of rational thought, but it is not their essence.  Humans are animals, beasts with complex brains.  Humans, more often than not, utilize their cerebrum to rationalize what their primal instincts, their preconceived notions, and their emotional desires have presented as goals - humans are rationalizing beings.
