Oh my... Are you serious?  I don't think I can bear to let Hendrik try
to respond to that with the polite and civil restraint he's shown so far.
I have no idea why people keep attacking him.  What has he said that
upset you?  You are behaving like the kind of American I'm ashamed to
share a country with, and you're exhibiting the exact same kind of
nationalism that got us into this mess in the first place (and exactly
what the angry Afghans are feeling against us when they torch our embassy
and call for the death of America).  Hendrik said it a dozen times; he
does not hate the USA.

And just so you can't attack me on the same grounds:

I am an American, and I love my country.  Even if it doesn't have
hash shops yet :-)

So PLEASE Mike... chill out.  You're making us look bad.
