could I ask you to qualify this very broad insult you have posted elsewhere?

"elimination of Americans from the gene pool would help life on Earth"

maybe you could at least disclose your own nationality so I can contemplate whether or not the elimination of your own contribution to the gene pool would be a desirable thing. For someone who can't spell arrogance you certainly seem to possess a fair amount.

where is that from. And i am sorry but I aggre with it. For example, they have caused several un nessecary wars, such as Vietnam or Korea. Also they have detonated the only nukes ever in a war. Although I cant spell I am using my rights under the data protection act not to disclose my nationality. Execpt to say it was more important than America. I am fed up with the americans constantly bullying other nations. This new found Iraq obsession is un neccery. The Iraqies had done nothing, they had weapons of mass destruction before now. And the Americans have an even larger stockpile of WOMD (weapons of mass destruction) than the Iraq's. However, having said that it is a large genralisation and I appoligise for its size.

well truthfully most of what you said is true, but not of all Americans. I may well be in the minority, but I do exist, and there are lots of us. It's just very depressing to be written off as shallow and self serving by so many people who know so little about me. thank you for your apology at any rate, sorry if I snapped

Thats ok I understand. What I dont undersand is this fairly sudden American obbsession with Iraq's WOMDs. America is just taking these weapons of a country that happens to have them. America has its own massive stockpile of nukes, over a thousand. With that kind of arsenal, you could wipe out the world about 40 times over, proberbly much more. Being an american, perhaps you can shed some light on this.

sorry I haven't the slightest idea. Only thing I can come up with is that us Americans are caught in a web of politics that we can't find a way to break out of. Certainly the moral support of the rest of the world would encourage us to pursue our goals regardless of our chances of success. Then too the contempt of the rest of the world, most of whom have little idea what it's even like to be an American, could do more harm than it does good.
