That's funny. The most common criticism I keep hearing from the people who say that U.S. foreign policy sucks is that the U.S. permits Israel too much control, and that it is their lobby that results in unwarranted amounts of funds being sent in support of them. I think the argument is inane: if the attack was the act of people trying to sway U.S. foreign policy, then they have most certainly failed. If nothing else, we will redouble our "meddling" as a means of flipping them off. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
