Right on Pearly---- 9/11 was a wakeup call from other oppressed people of this earth---- these yanks have to go back to when their forefathers had had enough. Look what they built,, look what they changed... fabulous in any context. If they are smart (Questionable), they will not fall back on their laurels like all previous empires , and be drawn into the same quagmire of the questionable people who have the audacity to claim the victories as theirs..... EG,,, Bush talks like freedom is somehow his possesion to give or take---Off with his head, I say-----

Americans really seem to beleive that they are superior to others. Clearly America in it short history has had some stupendous achievements, but it is a SHORT history. Even so, American children rate last in math, science or world knowledge, American cars are poor in quality and Americans seem to consume high-qulaity foreign made products contributing to a large balance of payment. If anything America is a debtor nation that pretty much consumes nice quality products mostly by others in the world. America has stupendous natural resources, a small population compared to its resources, military power and has amassed large capital that feeds/supports its military power. If not for the stream of hard working and bright immigrants America would be an average country. But to its credit it is surely preferable over autocrats, the english monarchy, fascism, communism or Islamic fundamantalism. But that is no reason for Americans to feel that every body is ogling/envious at them. Simba
