Don't know what you were inferring to make those comments. I was reffering to the points I made earlier that the assasination attempt claim was extremely dubious of not an obvious lie. I have no problem with international concern over an international friendly fire incident or even an all American one. I do have a problem with a large number of Europeans buying highly suspicious claims with the greatest of ease. My problem is that it shows their deductive powers are quite limited when it comes to evaluating US actions due to preconceived ideas and as a result I don't really value their opinion. European politicians seem to be whipping up anti-american sentiment for political gain much as the extremists in this country whip up anger against the other side to divert attention from their own massive failures. France in particular would rather play at being a world leader than deal with massive internal problems of a faltering economy, radical islamists, and negative population growth.
