I don't see where this post by Jaeger is anything more than a news report. How it becomes Anti-American is not evident at least to me. I would imagine that most Moslem countries have members who feel uncomfortable with the continued presence of American military in their midst. That we went there to fill an essential need or crisis is appropriate, but we should get out of there as soon as possible and let the UN take over. After having been in the Korean conflict myself I find it troublesome to me that 50 yrs. later we still have to maintain forces there. It is hoped that we would not have to maintain forces in Bosnia and Kosovo forever either. The Romans who controlled their world at least got taxes and tribute from their protectorats. How much can the American taxpayer afford to commit to in future generations in declining economies? Angler
