Courious, I find this a rather curious statement. It is, after all,
France and Germany who sued eBay to prevent independent individuals from
selling Nazi memorabilia on the internet. It is also european nations
who are leading the way against private use of encryption and internet
privacy. France decries the Echelon project while concurrently spending
more money spying on the US than any other intelligence service in the
world.
We also trust our citizens with more power than any european nation
does, with the possible exception of Switzerland.

Let me get this straight: you say that anarchist groups, which are
funded primarily by communist parties and an eastern european mafia
known as 'the 5th' which is manned by former KGB and other communist
intel/ops people and gets its funds from the opium/heroin trade from
Afghanistan to europe and the US, are entirely the fault of the WTO and
the US's War on Drugs?

While the US has imprisoned a lot of nonviolent drug users, there are
plenty of rather violent drug dealers and drug users sitting in prison
as well. At least 3/4 of the crime rate in the US is due to the poverty
created by drug use.
