"a govt. such as we have in the U.S. where the will of the people is (largely, at least) represented"

Really? The majority of the American people believe that the top two economic priorities of our nation are to perpetuate endless war and give all the rest of the money to international bankers? I reject your premise and find it has no merit.

The American people elected President Obama. Did you not see his speech about Afghanistan last night? He contradicts the endless war notion directly. I've looked it up for you: (23:00 to 25:00) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZLVqhsLgIw

touche, but President Obama is commander-in-chief, and he hasn't wavered from his stance, even when voting against the Iraq war as a senator.
