out in the cold:
In the furore over Chancellor Gerhard Schröder’s remarks regarding US foreign policy on Iraq, during his re-election campaign, and the ‘souring’ of diplomatic relations between the two countries, many have started to examine the possible impact it may have. Marc Fisher looks at generational differences in German-American sentiment, in the wake of the fall of the Iron Curtain. At least they are doing a good job of rounding up the terrorists in Germany itslef, and that is important. Steven Den Beste examines a Germany without the United States.
I would like to see a split between the two powers. The world’s third largest economy has a lot to offer, and have been good allies for the last 50 odd years. Let’s hope the politicians have their tit-for-tat, and leave it at that.
