If anything we decide to do ourselves for our own reasons is unilateral then there is nothing wrong with being unilateral. In any case diplomatic efforts were mounted in both cases. In both cases we could not get people to agree with us, so we did what we want and they can do what they want. Tim

Al, <Unilateral was the key.> Big deal. Every nation acts out of its own self-interest. If that nation is better served by being unilateral, so be it. If that nation is better served by being a "team player," then all the better. Ideally, every situation should be adjusted and compromised so that it turns into a "win-win" scenario for all parties involved. Realistically, you know we fall short. That isn't the fault of any one nation. Not even America. Tenchusatsu
