Chad quoted: "Furthermore, what has the world done to itself? The American governments have made mistakes, but they have also benefited the world significantly." And I quote: "And they make more and bigger mistakes to cover those." Doesn't it sound similar to "C/C++"? The hatred began when the Palestinians were forced out of their homes and lands to give way to a new country. Wasn't America the home of Indians? And they were forced to share their lands. Why the Indians weren't given a country of their own? How will you feel if you are forced out of your home and land to other people? How do you feel? I personally, think that the hatred had been ignited too long before. And one more thing, "The oil is thicker than blood!" That's GREED! Just wish everything is as simple as just a language war. -- type Dmitry is new Adrian; -- Adrian Hoe -- http://adrianhoe.com -- Remove *nospam* to email
