Jackie Not at all .. he's a medical doctor .. a good percentage of the docs in the USA now are foreign-born and many of them are refugees. Almost without exception every " Government in Exile " or opposition group lives in a country other than their original home. It wouldn't be so healthy for the feller to be in Iraq and write that. Here in Turkey we have dozens of opposition groups .. my drinking buddies include Iraqis, Iranians (which .. by the way .. are very, very Pro-American), and others. I get along well with all of them .. save the French .. they are impossible to get along with. Used to be bad but now its beyond that. Basically, they are Anti-American .. as is the government of Greece .. though the Greek people are very friendly. Opinions aside .. and the exceptions folks can list based on personal contact with a few neighbors or friends who are members of the groups I mention above .. you gotta live it, become immersed in it .. then you can get a good handle on what folks really think as a matter of routine. When they are tipping a few cold ones it won't take long to find out what they really think. ;-p Y'all keep smiling, Butch http://www.AV-AT.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
