Just thought I'd put in a fancy title to get attention :p

Seriously, what do you folks think about www.francesurrenders.com, francestinks.com, germanystinks.com, (the latter two must be typed in otherwise you can't get it, for some odd reason) wine shop owners pouring French wine down the drain, people starting to hate anti war countries etc? Why should humans, who pride themselves on being "rational" do such irrationally xenophobic-ish behavior? Or is it because humans are cursed with intelligence and thought?

I doubt if France/Germany are just idealistic peace people (more likely than not major investments are making them reluctant to war...because it will hit their purses), but this is becoming ridiculous.

Now don't give me any crap about how anti war is/isn't the majority opinion. I want YOUR opinion.

After TWO world wars GERMANY seems to finally have learned it's leason and OPPOSE any new wars and now people are complaining about German peacemongers.... tssssk, those Germans can't do good no matter what they do....

I think that those who find this type material benign should take a good look at the very cute, humorous, and creative material that came out in another situation where a country responded charismaticly to very similar ideas.

I wonder why?

It all comes down to, the fact that the "Average America" is really very stupid. The mob mentality can be seen here. And GWB is doing a good job of setting himself up as Big Brother.
