<<<By my standards, the actions of all Tribalists (Us and Them) are equally insane. It is not to my advantage, or to the advantage of Americans in general, for my nation to act in the world, in a way so several billion people hate me.>>>

So we are all nuts except you. ? Interesting, velly interwesting.

<<<The Spanish are showing us, how to defuse Tribalism: simply be a Good Neighbor. Protect yourself (your own citizens on your own soil), and quit reaching out into the world and killing Others (under any pretext).>>>>

What?. The Spanish haven't had time to do anythng yet.

Their troops are still in Iraq and the chance is very good they will stay there.

But good luck to them if they think a few words will stop terrorists.

The leader of Poland has a different idea, which is to use FORCE. Which could mean several different things to different people. My interpretation is the use of guns, but dont get in tizzy, maybe he just intends to push them around a little.

For me, tribalism is the highest morality? Every time I think you have something on the ball, you go and say something mind- numblingly off the wall like that. I am not sure I can even work up the interest to prove you wrong, you are so full of your own little Memes........
