You really have to question the stupidity.
American who are angry about Scotlands' decision to release Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed are urging their fellow Americans to boycott Scotland and even the U.K. collectively.
These dirtbags haven't got off their scummy butts to organise a boycott against their own illegal wars. They didn't call for boycott or sanctions against Israel's genocide in Lebanon and Gaza, or of Israel's ongoing ethnic cleansing of all non-Jews from Israel and Palestine. It seems they only get worked up when compassion is shown to a man who killed Americans.
It doesn't even seem to matter that the amount of Americans who died at Al Magrahi's hands (if indeed it was him) are dwarfed by the over one million Iraqis, Afghans, Pakistanis, Syrians, Lebanese, Iranians, Jordanians, Egyptians and Palestinians, etc., killed by Americans or because of American foreign policy and cash. And that's before we do a body count in central and south America, Africa, Europe and beyond.
I say to those pieces of crap who think that only American and Jewish Israeli lives matter ~ GO AHEAD AND BOYCOTT BRITAIN ~ I'd love to see how fast Brits turned against Americans and call for their troops to end all support for American wars. And then if the British troops are called home watch the support of America's other so called allies melt away.
Americans need to understand that most other countries only send in a handful of troops because they'd look bad if Britain was the only other country at Americas' side.
So go ahead and boycott Britain because other countries are ready to counter that boycott and so the only losers will be America. But then I think it's time that Americans realised that as a country (not as individuals) they really are Billy-no-mates.
Worldwide every country is either bullied or bribed by the U.S. to the extent that the U.S. doesn't have a single 'real friend' on earth. Blighty is about as close as the U.S. gets to a true friend so alienate them by all means but it will be at your own cost.
