Sarah's IP address goes back to the Hertfordshire County Council. Putting the words /hertfordshire sarah firth/ into google reveals that she is a trained hypnotherapist. I have only the highest regard for trained hypnotherapists. That and dry wit. But mostly trained hypnotherapists.

Amateur hypnotherapists do less damage than amateur surgeons. Usually, anyway, maybe it was an amateur hypnotherapist that got the Shrub out of bars which was a considerably more damaging achievement than any amateur surgeon has managed.

I spent six months in South Africa and to my pleasant surprise, my experience was just the opposite, almost all South Africans I met, especially the blacks, were nice and did not outwardly show resentment against all whites ( I am "white" and an American). I did get robbed once, but because of all the other positive experiences I did not let that one negative experience bring me down on SA. This is why I am so shocked to read and see all the "xenophobic" violence currently going on.

Your right, the US should have followed your example of Quiet Diplomacy.

Now that's impressive! I didn't think that there was anybody who would argue in favour of the invasion of Iraq!
Admittedly, as has been pointed out, most Yanks are against it not because they realise what an evil thing it was, but because they don't like all the dead Yanks being posted back home in body bags. But then you wouldn't expect them to grok the moral dimension.
There are, though, I agree, similarities between the Shrub and Mbeki - Saddam Hussein was a Yank creation, a puppet that lost his strings, just as our tyrant has been supported by Mugabe. I'm not sure that Mbeki is an ex-alcoholic, though, and I'm not sure that he is quite as simple-minded and aggressive as the little Yank shit.

South Africans are pleasant people for the most part. The current instability is, however, a sad indictment on us as a people. I am deeply ashamed of my country at the moment.
