Heated debate about comunism now. Well, I am pragmatical and don´t believe in utopias. Could comunism had been different? Who knows, the experience is not very nice to me. I think it´s a complete failed experiment and which doesn´t fit in nowadays world. When it was let´s say “invented” matched in opressed societies which needed a way out. But soon proved to be a nice but uneffective ilusion, because, men aren´t equals, governors as ruthless and after years of bloodsheed, I find quite extemporary to post it as example to follow. Of course it has value ideas, but it seems that what is left nowadays (NK, Cuba, Mongolia) is not really desirable. The main perversity of comunism is assuming that all are equals. We all deserve the same opportunities and rights, but if given the same rights to all citizens, one is hard working, other lazy, other has more iniciative, so clearly personal efford should be value. Of course societies should intervene and help those who can´t stand the “circle” of things and look after the weak. That´s what I am a centrist…get the best of both sides:)

I don´t like, big, messy, dark airports. Some examples…I don´t –
like MAN terminal one
-LHR terminal one and two,
-MAD long passages, inconvenient connections, caotic and tiresome for passengers
-DFW too plain and boring
-EWR tacky and rickety
-FRA same concept…..to much concrete all over
I love small, made of glass and aluminium terminal. Like….
-Stuttgart, Munich, Bilbao, LCY, LPL, STN

I am just as entitled to state my opinion about the US as you are I am I not?

Sauron

Certainly you´re, Sauron. I hope you are so vehement defending Canada.;)

I’ve never hear of Americans telling people in Europe to vote or not to vote for a certain person….but the reverse certainly isn’t true. How many times have we hear Europeans telling us vote this way or that way?

Vortex; That´s right but the answer is quite obvious. The US president decissions as the most powerful country in the world, usually affect the rest of the world. That´s why we tend to be scared and affraid about the US elections and who rules the country.

What trade sanctions are you talking about? Against who? Dosn’t the EU have trade issues of it’s own?

-Against France. It seems that now the US administration might be changing their mind.

‘Ultra neo conservatives’ Where did you get that line from? What does it mean? Perhaps you don’t like G.W. Bush because he goes to church?

-Pentagon advisers, who has launched the label WW4, make the axil of Evil concept, and points at many countries as next targets. Just because they are powerfull, and supporters of Bobb tough line…..”Have the power, change things and countries”. In fact, GWB is quite irrelevant for me, since he´s a tool by many lobbies. He´s too simple to have a definite oppinion about him. I love your assumption that I don´t like him because he goes to church, well and I go to chuch too.

Richard Perle is not part of, nor has he been part of, the current Bush administration,

-Thank godness, I put some other nice elements of the Pentagon or US current administration with really modern, open minded ideas….take a note of them. Appart from Rice and Chenney….and of course pintoresque Rumsfeld….James Woolsey.

Don’t you have enough domestic politics to worry about without concerning yourself about US politics and leaders? I don’t hear Americans telling you how to run your business.

-Of course they tell other how to run our business. I am worried as long as they interfere with my own living. This happens too often. If not…..well, we have quite enough over here, and I consider US politics as irrelevant as they consider ours. Don´t you have enough in Canadian politics to defend the US ones?

I think France has always told the US their real intentions, at least in public. They advised many times that they didn´t want the attack, and that they would veto. So I don´t know why the US is so surprised. I see it as interfering in other country internal affairs. What surprises me most is the US stance with other SC members. Power has said, “punish France, Ignore Germany and forgive Russia”…..different standards for the same thing. I understand the US be frustrated, and upset and even keep relation at low levels. But what I don´t agree is trade santions. What I see is that some members of the current ultra neo conservatives don´t like other countries to disagree. I do hope dear friend, the american population sent these Perle, Wolfowich, Chenney to the dustbin of history. The US deserve better leaders, with capacity to accept critizism. It´s my humble oppinion.
