Other countries don't complain?

[A. Havnes]

McCain said in the Florida debate that we have bases all over the world and no one complains. Well, let's see if we can refute that claim. How many protests have there been in countries other than Iraq over US occupation?

I'll start with this article:

"Right now the governments of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba, and North Korea are all preparing for a US attack," Katsiaficas added. "They all believe a US attack is coming because the neoconservatives in Washington are pursuing a very aggressive military policy. The Iranians are preparing for an attack modeled on Israel's attack on Lebanon. So the North Koreans would be remiss not to consider this realignment as a way for the US to position itself in a way so that it could make such an attack."

"The US military is increasingly unpopular in South Korea.

Outside the US base about 40 miles south of Seoul, protesters painted "NO USA" on buildings and stood on rooftops in a brief attempt to stop construction crews from tearing down about 90 homes."

Let's not forget Russia threatening preemptive nuclear strikes mainly because of the US building anti-missile defence bases around them.

Oh, and don't forget Diego Garcia. That is a tragic story. Sure it was the Britons who went in and did a lot of damage, but then the US bought it and won't let them back. I cried when I heard what they did to all the family dogs (killed them in front of the children and people).

Out of all the rest of the bullshit that is going on .. This fact alone scares the living shit out of me. At this point in our history we are closer to nuclear war then at any other time. People don't understand how much a Hardliner The russian prez is.

If bush or anyone else in our Gooberment pushes the Russians too far they will attack. And if they do you can kiss the planet goodbye.

First hand experience in Europe

When I was married to my first husband, we were a military couple living in Germany(Augsburg). There was an argument between our building and the one across the street which was locals (ours was all Americans). They started screaming at us that they did not want or need us to be in their country and to go home. We said we would be glad to if the @$%*@$ military would let us...LOL!!

It could very easily turn into an attack from both Russia and China, I think! Russia alone is bad enough.
