Other nation's leaders have condemned the USA in many areas recently.

How many 'allies' does the USA have today in Iraq and Afghanistan??

How many 'allies' does the USA have today in the world?

How many nations are standing up to the USA today who would never have done so in the past?

How many PEOPLE outside of the USA hate us for what we have done in Iraq and Israel and Afghanistan and with Kyoto and global climate change, etc.??

Although it is not correct, I'm sure the fact that the USA spreads billion$$ around to other nations, and the UN, this buys a certain amount of silence or wiggle-room for the USA.

I agree with you that it appears no nation or leader has directly confronted insane-Bush on USA torture, but I'm positive over the past seven years under insane-Bush, the reputation of the USA has fallen to one of it's lowest in decades...

I feel like I am watching a Star Trek episode on the "alternate reality" - the one where Kirk takes over the ship through assassination.....

Ptech is going down hill
How can the world.....?

...stop the US from doing anything?

We are the proverbial 800 pound gorilla. It's no wonder the Russians are nervous and responding in kind. It's possible we are the next iteration of the Nazis.

the "world" doesn't control the CIA.

A better question is how Congress allows this to happen.

That I thought was already answered..............

They are collaborators............

They can not speak out against what they have voted to authorize...

Germans, French......... The fucking ENglish are mere puppets........ Tony Blair was a foot stool.............

You gotta wonder if there is a pair nuts to be found in any of the capitals on that entire continent.......
