Britain has a socialist welfare state and health service and is certainly at
least as
trustworthy in fullfilling its international undertakings as any other.
It is of course the US where the Republicans talk about unilaterally
abrogating the ABM treaty, and also the US that has abrogated the lease
agreement on Guantanamo bay which expired three months ago.
History shows that blind fanatics regardless of ideology are the agents
of oppression. I can guarantee that Reese will have a good reason for
appeasement of every squalid dictator the US ever proped up and for
every act of oppression as beeing necessary for the 'sake of liberty'.
