my 2c on Wolfowitz, World Bank and some other nominations ... One German diplomat opined off the record, that US is all over the place anyhow ... Looms there like some football player and you better shut up, especially if it's just you and that fridge meeting in some dark corridor. What's new is possibly in-your-face / pick-your-finger attitude. But otoh is that really something new (g)?

Germany at the moment is in the introspection mode - 50 years since 1945... Those HJ kids you see on photos, with raised hands, crying, watching GIs twice their size and thrice their age - they are now not very far away from the moment when they'll go see their creator. For sure, they will not be around for the next decenial anniversary... So's all the others - the masses driven out of East Prussia - women (!), kids again...

They have all a message for us staying around for some more time....
