#2 I took a look at the poll.
There was no option to vote for France.

#3 So, here's a question for all the Euro-sophisticates out there:

If the U.S. is the greatest threat to peace (and I have no doubt that Time's poll will come back with that result), why isn't France hurriedly laying down aircraft carrier keels? Why isn't Germany ratcheting up fighter aircraft production? Why isn't Sweden ringing Stockholm with layer upon layer of anti-aircraft defenses? Oh, that's right. The United States isn't actually going to invade France or Germany or Sweden.

Never listen to what a man (or nation) says. Watch how they spend their money.

#5 Germans might get a little worried though...

US to punish German treachery, The Observer reports.

"America is to punish Germany for leading international opposition to a war against Iraq. The US will withdraw all its troops and bases from there and end military and industrial co-operation between the two countries - moves that could cost the Germans billions of euros."

Smart Americans. Don't invade, anti-invade!

#6 It is nonsensical to ask about a country already at war being a danger to world peace.
