Someone suggested Americans actually believe Britain has become some kind of 'springboard' for global 'jihadists' and we should be more concerned about this than the outcome of the American Presidential Elections.
Well based [purely] on this article [1], I would propose that we should be concerned about events in USA. After all Election Battles in the UK are focused on each candidate's ability to deliver results based on their past performances [in Cabinet] (Ok Tony Blair was the exception to the rule). I don't remember anyone ever 'raking up muck' (is it really a crime to be a Muslim in USA?) in the hope of personally humiliating the opposition - and I'm sure UK Candidates have plenty to hide themselves.
Anyway moving onto this piece [2], surely oxidisation is a 'miracle'! Seriously I think Pope Benedict should continue from his most honorable predecessor by continuing Pope John Paul's excellent work of seeking forgiveness [3] and building new bridges by asking forgiveness from the Scientific Community for atrocious crimes committed by the Church against Scientists. Who knows, the Pope may even [one day] seek forgiveness [from the Muslim Word] for the Crusades (particularly events in Ma'arra [4, 5, 6])
