  I agree with your viewpoint. I was remiss if I implied some prejudice
  on
  your part. For that I apologize. Yes, I agree. It is not only
  important
  but necessary to challenge decisions made by our national leaders no
  matter
  what the country is. That's what representative government is about.
  This
  is especially true where international ramifications are apparent. We
  are
  living on a small planet in dangerous times. Blindly following along
  is
  just as dangerous as blindly opposing. There needs to be some sober
  and
  informed critique.

  One major problem in America is that the biased and outright false
  reporting
  of news in the major media makes it difficult for many people to
  decide what
  to support and what to oppose. It is necessary to research and verify
  everything. I cannot speak to that issue in other countries as a
  citizen,
  but I can have an informed view. But does it not seem that the
  quality of
  leadership the world over has moved into a slump?

  When I was in Amsterdam a few years back I thought the reporting was
  fair in
  the papers I read. ( I was caught by one news story about a software
  guy who
  was eating his victims. I don't remember the details. I think he was
  in
  Germany.)

  I am one of your fans. I think you make a great and positive
  contribution
  to the list in many ways. I always enjoy reading your posts. I can
  say the
  same about others on the list. This is a great resource and the
  political
  discussions are for the most part civil and well managed.
