Yeah, as a dutch person I was already already not happy of our soldiers dying in a country that didnt do 9/11 not had weapons of destruction.

I remember Bush's words very clearly; "you are either with us or against us" which was a arm twister and not something an ally would do.

Little over 20 years later we are again forced to comply. Not for freedom, not for righteousness. No again for oil to make a few in the USA even richer.

And this time its bipartisan.

I think the Americans that died for my freedom are rolling in their grave about what their children are doing with it.

You know that you don't have to do whatever Americans say, right? It will come with its own downsides, but it is a choice. Maybe it's the Dutch people who died for your freedom and independence who are rolling in their graves right now?
