In a story by Hugh Williamson and Gerrit Wiesmann in Berlin, entitled, “Germany In Rethink On Iraq Force Deployment”, the Financial Times of London reveals that statements by Peter Struck, Germany’s Defense Minister seem to indicate that Germany favors a Kerry Administration. Apparently we don’t need a terrorist attack a la Madrid to attempt influence on our elections process. Outside influence, much welcomed by Democrats, (Nancy Skinner, in an interview with Neil Cavuto on FNC, Wed. Oct 13) appears to be rearing its head just prior to US elections. Is this maybe an “October Surprise” by the Dems? It seems quite clear from Mr. Kerry’s campaign promises, that he will court Europeans as never before if he wins office. One of his most-quoted promises is to bring France and Germany into the Iraq war. We may be seeing things unfolding here that are unpalatable to most patriotic Americans: We have never subliminated our government or our national policies to anyone outside our own nation.Are we about to start now?
