Years ago I used to subscribe to a foreign press review journal so I could get a handle on how the rest of the world saw things. Today I stumbled across this piece and it reminded me of how completely different viewpoints can be, and how important it can be to have a balanced view of things. The citizens of our strongest allies have come to see us as the second greatest threat to world peace behind Israel. Is there any clearer proof that the Bush junta needs to be overthrown? Good lord, it’s going to take us a decade or so to rebuild the trust we used to have with our putative allies. Cross your finger/pray/sacrifice a chicken to your pagan gods in the hope that the US wakes up to this disaster and gets these clowns out of office poste haste.
