They were doing their best to defend their own country. I don't want to say now, that I hate Frenchman or Englishman, because over half a century ago their army did not responded to German attack. I don't care about all these military treaties and I wish there were no armies nor wars (yes, I know that nobody wants it) and all the big money spent for armament went for ecology, food and other peaceful purposes. I'm ashamed for my countrymen shouting, that now we don't like Russians and love Americans, who 20 years ago cried exactly opposite. NATO expands to the east and our president is saying that he will do whatever Bush wishes, that our army is for his disposal. And that one day someone will get the idea to invade Russia - why not, they're not in NATO, we don't like them, maybe they plot something against us - not enough reasons? And that one day we will blow up the whole Earth and everything will go to hell. All that does not impose that I don't like Americans or Chinese or Russians because their governments undertake steps I don't approve. Many people tend to associate a nation with a stereotype and treat individual persons according to it. The longer I read this thread, the more I realize that something is wrong. With the world or with me. Maybe I'm to naive or not mature enough or not educated enough wishing that there was only peace everywhere and that everyone was living in happiness and abundance. Or maybe I was born in wrong times... - Michal "The matter is not where we are, but when we are" Charlton Heston as George Taylor in "The Planet of the Apes"
