You ask why I am not against France, Germany and Russia. They know how to be good world citizens. They do not go and bully others with their military might as Cheney/Rumsfeld axis do.

Of course they don't bully their best military sales customers..

I don't recall any US ordnance being sold to either Iraq or Afghanistan (although we did assist in arming the mahajedin to fight the Soviets during the '80s).

And it was these weapons that permitted governments to repress their citizens, as well as to agress their neighbors.

Don't even attempt to argue that France, Germany, and Russia have been "good world citizens"..

They are in it for their own selfish economic interests as well.. They just choose to do it in places where despots welcome their support.
