Hi! Jane, It is more than the problem of the American People. It is a matter for people in many countries, not the least the UK and Oz, as our leaders are hell bent on doing every bidding of the younger Bush, as we did for the older (NOT Elder) Bush.
Our farmers have a long standing and mutually satisfactory trading arrangement with the people of Iraq. The political interests in Iraq have caused the cancellation of half this year's wheat sales. For this year that is not all that bad as the world is hungary for our GM Free products. But our Government is going with the US and Canada and allowing GMs, while we are fighting in local areas for moratoriums. Nearly all of our trading partners are barring GMs, yet they may yet be grown commercially here. I believe the People of the US have an obligation to the rest of us, to get their Government/ Intelligence/ Military/ Commercial Interests under control. This could be as simple as increasing the number of people voting. I am currently emailling every Federal Member of Parliament in OZ, expressing my feelings on the Iraq issue. I note that there has been no mention in our media of an involvement by NZ. I trust that they have the good sense to keep it that way. Gil Jane Sherry wrote: > Woa there, Gil. Do I hear you blaming the American people for this mess?
