Jeg synes dog, at vi skal lykønske os selv med den fortsatte vækst i USA af den bevægelse, som siger nej til krig, og glæde os over f.eks. general Schwarzkopfs holdninger, der i overensstemmelse med Erasmus netop har anklaget forsvarsminister Rumsfeld for at foragte hæren og nyde tanken om at gå i krig, eller over den demokratiske senator Joseph Biden, som har beskyldt Bush for at give næring til den største antiamerikanske bevægelse i de sidste 30 år.
Nevertheless, I believe we should be pleased to see the continuous growth within the Member States of a movement rejecting war, and positions such as that of General Schwarzkopf who, taking the approach of Erasmus, has just accused the Minister for war, Rumsfeld, of undervaluing the army and of relishing the idea of going to war, or such as that of the Democrat Senator Joseph Biden, who has accused Bush of promoting the greatest wave of anti-Americanism for 30 years.
