You're from Holland, you wouldn't have any idea what being Patriotic is. You have never been put in the position to have to save the western world nor would you want it. Your country is the size of New Jersey and you have about as much political influence as the steaming load I left in the bathroom this morning.

You scoff at what we say because you have no idea what its like to have people hate you BECAUSE you are the example of freedom throughout the world. To be a traget just because you are the most powerful nation in the world. To be a target because the leaders of oil-rich countries have convinced their starving, third world people that their problems come from a country half way around the world, and not the greedy uncaring leaders themselves who only care about lining their pockets.

When the US attcked the Taliban, did ANY Arab nation offer food or money to help their Middle Eastern brothers rebuild? No, they sat on their hands and wondered what the US was going to do about this, just like everyone else. They sat on billions of dollars and did nothing.

So instead of rebutting my statements with redicculous quotes taken out of context that have NOTHING to do with the reality of the situation, how about you actually think for a second about what I said and form a valid opinion. I think if you do, you'll find you'll have either nothing to say, or you will agree with me.
Strangler, I think you've moved beyond Patriotism. Patriotism is about being proud and supportive of your country.

You on the other hand are saying that your country is the only right one. That my friend, is being a fanatic.
