I don´t see the importance of whether criticism comes from within/out the US. In fact, objectivity may likely contain more clarity from abroad. Anyway, the differences between US/UK culture are minute; driving on the left vs right, coffee vs tea, accent, Monarchy, some vocabulary and grammatical differences — who really believes that our government actually broke away from the crown?

The pervasive problems arising in the US are sending shock waves around the world, thus anyone outside of US has a right to inject their opinion.

¨America¨ is in dyer need of enlightenment and should graciously accept it from whichever corner of the globe it arrives. Unilateral thinking along with corruption is bringing the nation to its knees. Perhaps the US should just be quarantined by the international community instead of attempting to collaborate and solve the problem communally.

Way to keep your head in the sand, Craig — more of the same.

Best to all.

There are many brown and black (as Craig puts it) MPs in the British Houses of Parliament. Yes the UK is in Europe.

Press TV is Iranian owned and broadcasts from Teheran and does have a UK studio.

What Joshua Frank has to say is very pertinent and to those of us who predicted Change, What Change? it is all too depressing. The list of incumbents getting re-appointed goes on and on.
