You pretend that there wasn't discussion and cooperation when we attacked iraq. Let me remind you that they surrendered to us in the gulf war and agreed to certain conditions. Do you forget that we only attacked iraq after they invaded kuwait?
Then we cooled our heels for 10 years while the assclowns you want us to cooperate and discuss with jerked each other off about how to make iraq comply with the agreement of their surrender.
It appears that most complaints from non-Americans about what we do comes from jealousy over the fact that we aren't afraid to ignore the children of the world when making important decisions.

Thanks for your answer
As far as my reply goes, I was just inquiring about your opinion, I did not try to "suggest" that this is what you, let alone Americans as a whole think.
I have my own opinion about the whole Iraq situation which is that (with a few exceptions) it was a job well done by the American government - If Bremer manages to install true freedom and democracy there then I think it's one of the best things the US has done since the allied forces defeated Hitler.
