Hello SHANNON.

 BF>> importantly, start distinguishing between criticism and bashing.

And after all that you still fail to see what he says about the like of "his
kind of people" is correct.

(Heaven help us from the likes of this country. With luck I will live long
enough to see the fall of this country that breeds the most biggoted and
warmongering european race of all countries, yours, the US of A.)

That in parenthises is "bashing" what Bjorn writes is criticism refering to a
person singular who presses the opine that they represent an America of the
description that Bjorn gives, see the difference, he is correct in his
critisism of some in this echo, what I have written is plain insult of a whole
country, okay do you understand now? Bjorn expresses the view, some say is
truth, that conflicts of nations (wars) are caused by grandparents.

But what I have written is an ASSumption that may be made from what those few
do say, thus adding fuel to the "anti USA" fire. Those few add to the hatred
shown to your country by such as one calling all Europeans "cowards" while he
himself served as nothing more than an Air Cadet and faced nothing more angry
than a parade ground sergent. By doing this he insults the likes of my father
who served on the fronts of two world wars, my uncles who also served and died
in the wars, and thus myself. He wonders why we treat him like the turd he is.

I myself endeavour not to enter "national" debates (flame wars) as there are
only some half dozen z1 rotten eggs in here, and a couple from z2. The amount
of shit they create though requires a purification plant large enough to purify
London's crap, and just lately you are adding to it and fueling the bashing
exchange.
