    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    if you have dual-citizenship, i guess that means that you have to evaluate two governments, right?

    We are a tool of US foreign policy.
    Better than being a tool of UK Foreign Policy. Same thing, nevermind.

    Have you just been dumped?

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

    He has no disadvantage, that I'm aware of, of holding dual citizenship. He mostly likely benefits.

    No doubt similar reasons I have dual. He loves Israel, like I love the UK, even though we aren't there permanently. Heritage probably plays a role. Plus the benefit of being able to vote in both, and being eligible for the benefits of both. For me being a UK citizen also has the benefits of being able to travel and gain work in the EU easier. And for hooah, Israeli citizenship can also be beneficial for getting work in the EU if he ever so desires.

    France mostly sucks. Most of our latest Presidents have been complete morrons or power-hungry bastards. We keep telling other people what's best to do while doing whatever the hell we want.
    For some reasons, we're still stuck in Africa supporting dictators and what not.
    And for some reason, we still think we're a great power that is to be taken into account on the international scene (lol).

    French are a bunch of arrogant self-centered flowerholes, who always think they're right, even when they're obviously not (which happens every time I disagree with one of them).

    Yet, I'm glad I live in this country, because honestly, it's far from bad and I like it.
