Very well said, Ally ..... 'ally', i just realised your nick is also a word - being allies does not mean giving automatic assent to every order out of a nation's rulers .... we'll be far better allies to the average yanqui in the street by standing up for internationalist principles, because it's not in his interests either, to see this unilateralist doctrine followed
Look at the middle east now - everything that happens in the entire region for the next fifty years will be the responsibility of the US soldier and taxpayer .... it didn't have to be that way, there could have been a genuine alliance of democracies handling this
Here - #reply-18854797 - we have a poster who professes a degree of canadianicity and who has been one of the more strident mongers of the neocon permawar on that thread .... says he figures JC stressed the multilateralist thing to help the other JC with the federalist thing ...... well yeah maybe, to an extent, sure .... but to say it that way ignores the fact that far more than the quebecois oppose planetary rule by one small group ... i'm not quebecois, though i happen to be related to some, i can't even read the back of the cereal box well, just a wet coast logger nothing more, but i feel the same, i say to JC, both of them, good on ya, we must stand firm on this, make it plain to these PNAC capos their simple choice - they are either with us, or they are against us |
