ElM, the British Empire and Commonwealth was the biggest trading zone ever: <we had warring nations instead of trading nations, you know, the times when the Anglos ruled > The local yokels warring against each other stopped while the British ruled with Virtuous Victorian Values. India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka - one big happy family. But when Britain decided to leave the locals to it, the locals started back into the fighting. Look at Kenya for example. And Zimbabwe. India and Pakistan glower at each other with nukes at the ready. Osama would have been nabbed years ago if Great Britain still was in charge there. You Anglophobes have caused catastrophic economic disaster in many countries. Now China is filling the vacuum in Africa and elsewhere left by Britain's withdrawal. They have different philosophical foundations which do not recognize free, individual human rights, habeas corpus and all that "old-fashioned" English ideology. Unfortunately, the Anglophone world doesn't either [or is dropping it]. Mqurice
