Can understand your feelings however remember that Germany refused to help protect Turkey if they helped in any coming war. Now who's playing games and bullying. The purpose of NATO is to help the countries protect each other and when you refuse to do that, you are essentially not part of the club. And let's not get started on the French.... People are dumping French wine in the streets over here they are so disgusted. Germany used to be my most favorite country to visit and I've been there about 6 times. I doubt if I will ever go there again. > _______________________________________________ > General mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/general -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Bruce S.
