I am 1/4 german and so this is not prejudicial in any way.

I think a more meaningful analysis would focus on the culture, not the genetics. It's not like all Germans have the same genetics, despite what Hitler thought.

After WWII the Germans and the Japanese tried to make military solutions to problems unpopular, for obvious reasons.

BTW, my husband is half German, my kids more than 1/4 German, and I have some German ancestry myself. We are all in favor of taking action against Iraq.

That they are on the wrong side of this issue once again tells me that the collective german psyche must be defective, their fight or flight gene is just not working.

Wrong side of the issue indeed. German justice minister comparing BUSH to Hitler.
