but I think the good-cop-bad-cop routine going in Korea is working. I was wondering what you're referring to here...

Ted, I got back from Korea last Monday. Now that I've had a chance to "recover" from my vacation, I can finally reflect on what I experienced there. With respect to international current events, I can see why there is a lot of resentment toward America. It's hard to explain it all in one post. But I will say that America is unilateral mainly because she can be. Nations who can't afford to be will become better global players sheerly out of necessity. Ten, the view of the US outside of the US has always surprised me. At first, I could never reconcile how 'they' saw us vs my own perception of us......Americans. We are great people.....why do they hate us. Eventually, I began to realize that 'they' had a split view of us.........they saw the gov't one way; Americans [the people] another way. We see Bush's current behavior as a normal response to the horror of 9/11 and very understandable. They, of course, don't necessarily see that one follows the other, and wonder where all this will end and is this a superpower run amok. And Bush comes off as one of the most arrogant Presidents of the past 50 years, and he doesn't get when he's stepping on toes. ted
