okay, you might feel safer due to more visible security precautions but do you really, honestly believe that any amount of security could have prevented new york, madrid or bali? as the old terrorist adage goes "you have to get lucky every time, we only have to get lucky once."We, meaning rank and file Yanks really dont' care, because he makes us feel safer.
but what they don't like is their holy cities being laid seige to by thousands of good ol' boys who refuse to even let ambulances through their roadblaocks. what they don't like is 8000-10000+ of their fellow civillians being killed in the past fifteen months (source).As for Iraq. No they don't like us much. But what they do like is the fact that they can live their lives like the rest of us do...free from fear from a sadistic government.
ah, the old "we liberated them for democracy it's not our fault if the barbaric arabs are incapable of anything but butchering one another" gambit. wonder why it is most of the world thinks yanks are arrogant...?Yes I want my countrymen out of there when the new gov't takes control. But in the end, I think a good deed has been done...what Iraq does with that good deed is entirely up to the Iraqi people.
Gotta give the Welsh marks for trying
