HI Bart and all of you,

No Bart.
We are just not going to fall on our knees in front of one single - extremly
nationalistic - country which
say they follow the word "freedom" as their nickname - while they do the
opposite !
USA take more prisoners each year than for instance any of the
EU-countries - looking at percentages.
And what about the arab countries or India ?
And of course Bart will tell me, that the prisoners in the jails of USA are
allowed "FREE MIXING".
Have you ever visited one of the jails in that particular country ?
And I am not an anti-american, but I do believe, that peace is important.
Germany wants peace, but what does USA want ?

I still disagree.
