#1 Sorry, Niall, wrong again. He merely recognizes that the world is dangerous and is willing to accept that reality.

#2 Yup. One of my more useful sayings at work:

"Europeans adapt to problems. Americans solve them."

#3 No kidding, Steve.

When I lived in Germany back in the 1970's, it truly amazed me how the Euros seemed to just accept anarchists blowing shit up. Even the police couldn't seem to find the Baader-Meinhof gang (until the idiots killed a policeman - then suddenly they were getting captured by the handful).

I believe to this day that the reason Europeans and American behave differently is that, for all their revolutions and elections and pseudo-democracy, Europeans still think of themselves as subjects, whereas we think of ourselves as citizens.

Then again, it doesn't hurt that the smart Europeans such as my ancestors left "safe" but stultifying Europe (Gott sie dank) for the Land of Opportunity.

Perhaps that's because Europe's only real problem solving tool is slaughter on one scale or another.

#5 The world *needs* to become a more dangerous place, at least for some persons and groups who apparently have an inherent inability to live peaceably with their fellow humans.
