How many countries are represented here?
Lots of Americans and Kiwis and Ozzies. How many other countries post here and thank you. I love that its international here. I love hearing it from other places.

1. UK
Well I'm from the UK, and I know of at least 4 other Brits here ( I am sure there are more.). I agree with with you about the international thing, I think in the present world we all need to talk and get each others views, it makes us much more rounded.

Since I first came here in Febuary I have changed my views, I used to be a bit anti-US, but now I've met so many really nice Americans here I realise it was the system ( i.e. Shrub+right wingers, multinationals etc ) that was clouding my judgement.

9. you can be proud of your country !
I loved how Turkey didn't simply crumble in front of the bribe - that takes courage !

Turkey would have received a multi-billion-dollar compensation package in return, but US officials say the financial package has now been withdrawn.
