What get's me is why Norwegians, Swiss and Russians aren't Fellow Humans. When will they become Fellow Humans?

Sorry. Where did I say that I excluded these peoples ? The point I was making (in case you missed it ) was that not all people choose to define others by conventional stereotypical geo-political categories. I prefer to look to a wider categorisation and then judge and refine based on my experience.
That's why I don't believe Germans are closet Nazis who want to conquer Europe for Lebensraum, the French as a nation are not habitual losers who urinate in public and stink of garlic or any of the rest of this type and of ill-informed and jingoistic labelling.
Oh, and btw, it's 1.45am here so I am going to bed - so no more debating tonight
