Please note that "cowboy mentality" was a term that Natashy Vita More used
as an example of the American character and said she "frankly liked" it.

My name is Hubert Mania, I am 48 years old I. live in Germany and we
already have had some talk about ww2 this summer.

I do not regard any country as exemplary, but being born and raised in post
war West Germany there was virtually nothing left about his nation that a
boy
could be proud of.

Well, maybe the language barrier between us makes it a little hard for me
to really understand if you mean "miserable" as an insult or as an
expression to feel pitiful about me. Anyway, it is wasted time to feel
concerned about my joy of life. And I never hated anybody who enjoyed life.
It is embarassing for me to explitely say this, feel like a school boy, but
well... sometimes some things have got to be said.

I can tell you I do not feel any revenge and anger and hate as you do and
all the other war promoting persons on this list. But this is probably what
happens to a person when she tries to spread the peace meme nowadays. She
becomes the target for the anger and hate of people who apparently enjoy
their lives. It is absurd that peace promoting persons are regarded as a
bunch of outlaws and freaks.

PEACE

Hubert Mania, a German citizen who is sick of the American sabre rattling
