Hi, what should I do about that? http://www.tagesschau.de/aktuell/meldungen/0,1185,OID3246808_TYP4,00.html http://www.tagesschau.de/aktuell/meldungen/0,1185,OID3247844_TYP4,00.html
Translation: USA are torturing prisoners in Afghanistan and Iraq. So what? If anybody complains, they just throw a bomb on him. Guys: FreeDOS is great, but some aspects of US politics suck BIG TIME. I guess boycotting this state by blocking access to my download area for the "cowboys of the world" would only hit the wrong people. Well, who knows. Unless there are some US weapons running on FreeDOS. I do not hope so. I just wanted to express that this is really disappointing (even more so as it does not come as a surprise) news. Further action can only be taken by US people themselves: Look at yourself. Behave. Make your politicians behave. Babelfish translations of the above 2 news articles: http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/trurl_pagecontent?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tagesschau.de%2Faktuell%2Fmeldungen%2F0%2C1185%2COID3246808_TYP4%2C00.html&lp=de_en (seems to have a problem with Umlauts, I hope it works better for you) "We are not perfect". What a rediculous understatement of the human rights situation in Afghan jails. http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/trurl_pagecontent?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tagesschau.de%2Faktuell%2Fmeldungen%2F0%2C1185%2COID3247844_TYP4%2C00.html&lp=de_en Just because finding the real culprits does not work out there is no right to make people sit in their excrements and all kinds of other kinds of abusing supreme power just because you HAVE supreme power. Power corrupts. PS: If you have experienced problems in downloading lbacache-01may2004, this was not related to the above. We had a fileserver failure tonight. And I am not that crazy that I would try to change politics by blocking US access to my FreeDOS files or doing any similar nonsense. Expressing my feelings publicly hopefully helps more. Should make people think. PPS: I know, Babelfish translations are crap. If you know a better machine translation system, let me know.
