The Euro-Merkin split... |
2002-10-03 |
Very nice summation of American-Euro relations by Andrew Olmsted.Because we came out of Europe, they've always tended to assume we're just another European country. Cruder, of course, and desperately in need of Europe's advice and assistance, but a European country. Now perhaps they're beginning to learn that we have very little in common with Europe. One European official observes that "For you, [the war on terror is] not symbolic, it's a real term. From that moment, you decided it's your problem and you have to solve it and the rest of the world can either help, or, if not, to hell with them." |

#2 This could be the only person in Europe that understands what the WOT is about. Also, someone should explain to the Euro-pee-ons that we didn't just come out of Europe, we got AWAY from Europe. |
