Hi Josep,
i understand from your message that it would be great if we Europeans
had the same power as Americans have. So we could have a "fair" fight
with our enemies. And maybe, the same day of their defeat, we could
invade Quwait and Saudi Arabia. This is the way we westeners love to
spread our concept of "democracy", no matter where it comes from. Of
course it would greatly help us the foundation of an European Army
(already thought) who could decide who's the right to do what. We could
also establish a Guantanamo-type of camp for terrorists somewhere in the
far eastern Europe. Or in a cold Scottish island maybe.
Does it really matter to the exploited where the exploiters come from?

This is the only sensible note of this message.
 IMHO of course....
