you can't be a democracy and act imperialistically, and the protesters know that.

I am not sure what you mean. In open societies, there is a right to dissent, and the protesters are exercising this right.


The protesters know that the US is a democracy and is sensitive to public opinion.

I was just wondering what you thought of them, the quotes and opinions expressed in that article.

You'll have to be more specific; the quotes and opinions range from reasonable to radical.

The real source of the unrest is in the UK. It will be interesting to see how T. Blair fares in the next year.

Do they have election next year in UK? I think Blair may be more vulnerable to internal coup from withing his party than in the general election.


There is an election in two years. You may be right but I think the Labour party is like all political parties; they'll can a known vote getter only when they're sure he can't win anymore.......don't you think?
