<font color=orange>It wasn't a Belgium operation. It was a NATO operation that brought NATO AWACS planes to patrol the eastern coast of the US. Last time I checked we were still in NATO. We are very glad they did too. While we are the only Super Power, why shouldn't we use all the help offered by other nations. We welcome anyones aid that is welling to send it. I seem to recall that someone brought up that Doctors and medical supplies were offered too and that we wouldn't allow them in. In that instance we had plenty of resourses on the scene and we had also stopped all flights over the US mainland. It was quite obvious to me at least that when the two towers came down, there wasn't going to be a lot of survivors. I think if you go back to the days following September 11th, President Bush Publicily thanked all those countries that came to our aid. He also extended our condolenses to countries that lost their own citizens in the World Trade Center.
As far as China becoming a world power, let them. I have no problem with that. China is a great nation. But don't forget that China is open to critizism as well. I think it was in 1978 or 9 that China started a little Border war with Vietnam and ended up getting their butts kicked. Not a very friendly act. And also don't forget Teinaman Square (sp). That was a very bad scene. I'd also welcome a stronger EU, though I'll be surprised if it doesn't take a long time. Bringing all the countries of Europe together with all their different cultures is going to be a huge task.</font> |

Uh, uss? I guess you never heard the one about throwing stones if you live in a glass house? ;)
Your posts have spelling, grammar, punctuation and syntax mistakes too. We haven't cast you on the coals for that yet have we? LOL Oh and the Estonian president doesn't speak perfect English which is not his native language...uh and we should dislike a world leader for that? :rolleyes: *checks her Estonian and finds she hasn't got a word of Estonian in her vocabulary* ;) |
Well, I don't expect people whose first language isn't English to know how we spell it all and position it all in sentences. You have to remember ours is the hardest language in the world to learn if you are not raised speaking it and uss makes a point...Americans over the age of 16 should know how to spell. Not everyone is familiar with ain't and 'cause and whatnot so some of us probably come across as pretty strange to those unfamiliar with our slang too. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Language shouldn't be an argument (unless you are spelling Britain or British for Donut's sake lol) [ 08-22-2002, 02:56 PM: Message edited by: Moni ] |

Moni; I don't think English is the hardest language to learn. I've been learning a couple of languages and I remember English as the easiest one to learn. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Iron_Ranger; I think he spells Irak because that's Iraq in Estonian. It's the same in Slovene - we call it Irak. [img]tongue.gif[/img] |

Come to think of it though, I have a friend from Bosnia who says she learned it rather quickly (and speaks it very well) (but then she is a Math/Computer Science major too and everything comes easy to her lol). [img]smile.gif[/img] |
