To all posturing American politicians and anyone who is misguided enough to agree with them

Thanks very much for destroying our stock exchanges and our financial institutions with toxic debt invented and marketed by you (there is no subprime mortgage crisis in continental Europe, let alone Japan, China or India, but all their institutions are paying for your and Britain's insanity) and then refusing to do anything to stabilize the situation. Evidently, to you the world ends at the bottom of your garden. Except of course when you need help cannon fodder for Iraq or Afghanistan.

This is an angry reference to the American request for military support in Iraq and Afghanistan. I for one am in favour of supporting you lot, but you should not remember that you have friends and allies only when you need people to expose themselves to enemy fire, and then forget it when it is time for congressmen to parade their own ideological hang-ups. Whatever the rights and wrongs of the bail-out, its reversal has done immense damage outside America, and not one congressman or commentator seems to have noticed that small fact.
