Subject: AFRICADAILY3 Another US miscalculated move

Seen in the press :

 

�The United States threatened Thursday to withhold money for a new NATO headquarters and ban Americans from attending alliance meetings unless Belgium changes a law under which Army commander Tommy Franks was charged with war crimes. �

 

 

US are specialists of universal laws. They made one to sanction foreign companies trading with Cuba. They have under AGOA a damaging clause forcing African States do implement US intellectual property and patent principles, a daylight robbery. They twist the arm of many states on various subjects, such as the World Court.

 

They are not in a good position to pressure Belgium, at least on moral grounds.

 

On the other hand, who cares if NATO staff work in cramped offices? I even suggest that Belgium in retaliation stop maintaining the buildings. I would be curious to see the arrogant NATO executives shivering in the cold Belgian winters. It would inject a dose of reality! And no Americans to NATO meetings would sign the end of this useless and nefarious organisation.

 

Folks, for once, I approve G. W. Bush ! That�s historical !
