#1 This needs the graphic of flogging the dead horse, methinks. Yeah, yeah, Germany was a fucking big help before, during, and after in Iraq. Woohoo! Where would we be without 'em? Right. A real peach. Now STFU.

#3 America Bashing is a popular sport the world 'round, and an almost sure ticket to victory at election time ( unless your initials are Gerhard Schroeder). Still, I keep seeing little tidbits like this where various foreign intelligence services - even the usually feckless French - seem to be working in concert with the U.S. All parties concerned would deny it, of course. But it makes me wonder if certains governments realize we have a common interest in fighting terror even though they would never say that publicly.

Or at least if not the entire government, then some individuals within it. TGA did mention that Joschka Fischer was the most sensible of the bunch. I like this.
