Good Post Hiram! Your views are no more biased than anyone here, and basing them on the news availible is what everyone here does. Our news is, I'm sure, more biased that some other nations regarding this war on terrorism, but then again, we were the one's attacked weren't we
I think if this attack had happened in Britian, France, Germany, or anywhere else their news would be the same. I also think if the attack had happened anywhere else, the US would have been applauded for it's actions to aid an ally, instead of being vilified. That is not to say that all non American's have vilified US, or that all American's think America is doing the right thing, but nonetheless, an interesting "what if?"
Neb it's wonderful to hear a non American say that this is a war against the Taliban, Al Queda, and Osama and not Afghanistan. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
