Well, I agree that there are altogether too many people who are quick to call people un-American the second they question government policies and i also acknowledge that a 4 minute video set to a Bing Crosby song will probably not present all relavant facts, however I found the video somewhat thought provoking. And, Pinkie, no I hadn't seen it before.
I did think that the video did show some of the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" mentality that often people forget or are not aware of. That being said, I feel that it is a good reminder for people that the USA does not always interact with other countries for purely high-minded principled reasons, and we frequently are interested in "what's in it for us." Sometines this is a good thing, sometimes not.
