You may find my comments insulting, but with respect to supporting the USA in Iraq I find the actions of Germany self indulgent and unforgivable. As a true believer you may find it somewhat unfathomable, but there are plenty of reasons that many people disagreed with the neocon great gamers who insisted on the necessity of a war in Iraq. Supporting the "USA", e.g. the DoD hotheads who fought so long and hard for that war, may well have not actually been in the US interest. I find your comments somewhat worse than insulting, I find them insufferably self-righteous and, like the war itself, perhaps considerably more harmful to US interests that you'll ever admit. With a healthy contingent of true believer neocons now joining the rest of the Bush administration begging the UN for aid, I don't think your line of "reasoning" is particularly helpful.
