I blame France for aiding Saddam. I blame the US for aiding Saddam (I blame the Russians and the Germans and....the list goes on). I blame the US for invading the country. I would blame France for that too, but I can't, because they did not do it.

Tra lalalala

Do not imagine I feel the way about the US that you feel about the French, because that would all be in your imagination. In fact, I do not think you can imagine how I view this- I think it is simply beyond the scope of your world view. My view is all grey- all the time. With every action, *good* and *bad* (and please realize I use those terms in a semi-mocking sense, because I'm not sure what they *really* mean) come results which might also be *good* or *bad*- *bad* actions can have good results and vice versa. It makes it very hard, going forward, to evaluate things in terms of black and white. Looking backwards, perhaps we see black and white- a little bit- but going forwards? I leave the black and white to people like you. If it makes you happy, go for it. Such simplicity does not entertain me.
