on these situations knowing that it goes on, secretly endorsing Americans who remove terrorists from their country while making public denouncements of such acts? You think the Italians want to piss off and attract terrorists? Italy, like other European nations understand what they're dealing with and they're doing what they have to do politically.

With all due respect, I'm a bit surprised at the lack of nuance diplayed on this thread by folks who claim mastery of the form.

- You're projecting Dave, I wasn't looking at the situation in terms of value judgements or strict legality - J-PMatt@Comcast.Net 20:10:47 11/04/09 (1)
  - "strict legality": is that the sort of "legality" that gets 23 people convicted? - dave c 20:29:29 11/04/09 (0)
