Anti-Americanism ... in a neutral counrty

ITW [the irish boy]:
"no country is near perfect..Check out your country fighting over a fuckin religion..and other various parts of the world over a fuckin thing that aint even real"

I agree with that. No country is near perfect. I know this country isn't but for the moment we aren't 100% profit driven. Socialist parties still have enough power to give the country a conscience. While no country is perfect, I think it is important that counries strive for that, especially on an international basis. For instance, Ireland has the highest per capita aid for the third world. In my personal opinion, I feel the world's most powerful nation should lead by example.
It may seem to those further away that the fighting in Ireland is over religion, but I think the record should be set straight. It is more over old colonisism than anything. Very similar to Israel-Pakistan in a way. Efforts are constantly being made to reach peace through non-violent means and its slowly making progress. I dont find that Bush's war on terror really has the aim of satisfying both sides, but rather satisfying party backers many of whom are rich oil tycoons.
Thanks for the props everyone. Amazing how keeping your ears open every once in a while feeds your brain.
