Re: A comment deserving more than a reply... (none / 1)

You accuse people, who care for human rights, to have objected the war in Iraq as bigot, because of extreme double standards. For that indeed it is relevant, which informations were out in the public, and not what the reality on the ground was.

Adding (none / 1)

An in Germany there were as well demonstrations against the Kosovo war. There was for sure no 100% support for it.

Re: A comment deserving more than a reply... (4.00 / 2)

I really think we're having a failure to communicate. I was just pointing out the irony of it all. This was in relation to comments about the media in Europe and elsewhere. If our media didn't consistently take the national line in foreign policy, then I'm sure people wold feel differently about the wars.
