Nor do you explain why you're not as responsible for what Berlusconi did as we are for American policy. And in your inimitable fashion, you even manage to blame America for his election. I never said that America is responsible for Berlusconi - I said the opposite, that Italians are, and I am Itali...

Have you read The Society of the Spectacle ? We Americans live deep in the heart of its maelstrom. And we Italians are following you closely - this is where a Berlusconi came out of, of course. Other European countries may have dreadful political leaders, but nobody like Berlusconi, which is a tota...

Big Magilla, actually usually I am the attacked one - by most of you, the so-called (by me) group of cowards of the board. As for Hustler being Argentinian, I never read his posts before he started replying to mine, so how could I know that he's from that country? And trust me, without knowing that...

Hustler, listen to me. If you find my posts so authorian and despotic, here is a friendly advice: don't read them. Just don't read them - it's easy. When you see ITALIANO on the left side of your screen, just skip it. This way you will avoid my negative influence and your views about your beautiful...

Oh Kaytodd, if I spoke English well, and, as you said, we were eating together and drinking good wine, it would probably be easy to explain correctly what I mean. But my English isn't good, and I've been even compared to Hitler for some things I've said recently, so you must understand me if I don'...

Well, it's possible that since I don't go to the States anymore, and I choose instead to go to countries which are in many ways victims of the US (and more generally of the western world), I don't know much about the tensions in your country now, Sabin. So I'm sure you are right. Yet, you know what...

The only ones responsible for that – and for the deaths of the innocents in Somalia – are Bush and his cronies. Do you play any sports, Marco? – because you’re a great trash talker. Well, I swim every day, won a few medals in skiing many years ago and was a reasonably good freestyle wrestler during...

Thank you Johnny Guitar for understanding what I meant. You and I haven't always got along well in the past, but let me tell you what a relief it is for me to see that someone here can perfectly understand what I try to say (in my admittedly broken English!) - and without using easy jokes or cheap ...

No Sabin, I know by now that I can't expect anything truly genuine from this board. I guess it's an American thing (and I must admit that over the years this board has given me an insight into the American character that I didn't have previously - and for this I'll always be grateful to all of you....

Trust me, Eric - you don't know me. I was the first foreign civilian to enter Lebanon the day of the cease-fire with Israel last summer (from Syria). I will never forget what I saw. Mine might be personal grievances, but they are not subjective, nor emotional. If I don't like America it is for good...
