Don..My comments on American apathy, applied not only to this thread, but to the lack of support given to the Iraq veterans on their march to New Orleans.

These men were taking a great risk to their physical wellbeing and their future employment by taking part and from the TV report broadcast here in UK they received very little support from the American public ....nobody cared or even tried to understand what the men were saying.

I believe the people of the UK to be cynical cowards politically and I thought the idealism of the Americans would be the best weapon against the powers of darkness. but I'm beginning to realise that the American public have bought the lie ,lock stock and barrel.
They appear in general to be obese, moronic, bigots who glory in their ignorance and seem to wear it as a badge of manhood.

I am depressed about the future!!

What have I done?...Not nearly enough, but I've travelled many miles to protests and demonstrations all over Scotland and written several letters newspapers local and national, at every oppertunity condemned Blair and his acolytes for the biggest political crime in my lifetime.
