Yankee, go home!

President Bush says he is "spreading freedom and democracy around the world".

Riiight! So why is Iraq in a mess? Why is Afghanistan falling apart?

Simple. When you involve yourself in the problems of other countries, their problems become your problems - and it usually makes the problems worse.

Saddam Hussein wasn't exactly Mr. Nice Guy, but Iraq is a worse country today than it was under his rule.

Call the troops home, Mr. President!

Yankee, go home! (And take your allies with you when you leave.)

No more Norwegians in Afghanistan

Norway is a NATO country, and it (Norway) has recently been asked by said organization to send more troups to Afghanistan. However, one of the three parties in the Norwegian government, Sosialistisk Venstreparti (the Socialist Left Party) is traditionally a NATO-sceptic party, and now (seemingly because of this party's opposition) the Norwegian government has turned down the NATO demands. They are not sending more troups to Afghanistan. This is good. Now I'd like the government to call home all Norwegian military from abroad, and leave NATO.
