Tasha, there will never be a unified response from the "international community" on any subject, ever.

I think it's time that the USA face up to the fact that germany has always been our enemy. It will always be our enemy. The germans might have pretended to be our ally but only so long as the USSR existed as a threat and the germans could use the USA so that germany would not have to provide for its own defense.

france has never been anything but a pain in the ass. All during the cold war, france was more of a friend to the sovs than to the USA. france has never honored an agreement with the USA. any grace that france has been credited with from helping in our Revolutionary War was nullified by france's scumbaggedness during the french and indian wars.
All of western europe has been dominated by a grotesque abomination of a philosophic trend that began with anarchism, morphed thru communism and fascism and is still preached thru postmodernism.

Anti-Americanism is as deeply ingrained within the mindset of most euros as is the more ancient but similar anti semitism.

nearly every problem currently on the "must solve" list for the USA has its roots in one form or another in the horrorshow that has been 19th and 20th century europe, including north korea (which was created, financed, motivated, trained and equiped by the USSR).

There is some semblence of rationality in eastern europe but the tradition of european anti Americanism will continue to grow throughout those cultures over the comming years.

What is left from which to try for consensus but various backassward cultures of nearly stone age poverty, some asian cultures barely able to keep their hands off each other, the UK and Australia?

Those that want to talk the talk of being our enemy should be made to walk the walk of being our enemy.
