The ones like most US ppl still thinking that Saddam actually *was* supporting Al Qaeda because they were fed that lie, despite every piece of evidence to the contrary. > Should we should just bow to the Europeans who offer far superior views? > Should we just show the BBC and be done with it? Ever tried watching the BBC ? It's *renowned* worldwide for its impartial coverage of events. You don't get a reputation like that without a history of excellence in reporting. > Newsflash....EVERYONE has skewed views.

It's fashionable for ppl to focus on Europe's disagreements. In reality it's not such a big deal. It's also a challenge to try and forge a new superpower from many disparate countries. It's happening though. Astonishing that the Ukraine has now formally requested to join the EU. Who would have ever though that the EU would include former parts of the USSR ? Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are already in now of course. I'm just wondering when Russia itself will have to request admission. > > Out of curiosity - does the US school curriculum include compulsory study > > of a foreign language ? > > For the most part, yes, though it hasn't always been that way..
