Blitzkrieg in reverse
Two interesting reports from Germany. Apparently, only 12% among the 508 German business and political leaders surveyed by the Capital magazine want to see Bush re-elected. 76% favour his opponent, John Kerry. Meanwhile, German President Johannes Rau was recently forced to cancel his trip to a tiny African country of Djibouti, after receiving intelligence reports suggesting he is a target for assassination by Islamic terrorists. But I thought that if you are anti-American enough and do your utmost to oppose the liberation of Iraq by those damn Yankee infidels you should be safe from the terrorist wrath? I guess Germany will have to try the appeasement even harder.
