Michael By the way, I am surprised that the American army is allowed to mislead young adults on television with sensational commercials (see Rundbrief 03/2002). I would strongly advocate for requiring at least fine print at the end of such commercials, stating something like "Even though this all looks very great, there is still the possibility that you might end up dead in a body bag" -- similar to how cigarette manufacturers nowadays disclose the truth so that no one can sue them later.
At the protest, interestingly, the radical left repeatedly criticized America's support for Israel sharply. And, we could hardly believe our ears, a few times the speakers praised the fact that an alternative grocery store called "Rainbow Groceries" had banned all Israeli products from its shelves in protest. Corresponding bumper stickers are also becoming more common, such as "Stop Israel's Apartheid," or similar slogans, but mostly on rather low-quality cars typically driven by a politically left-leaning group of people. Thus, the circle between Möllemann and communism is completed -- only in America!
