Yup agreed this book has that effect on some people. You can see it happening on Goodreads. I personally think its due to cognitive dissonance. He is a whistle blower like Assange.

Everyone interested in the topic should give State of Fear by Michael Crichton a read. Its one of my favorite books, it helped me realize that there are other sides. I grew up watching shows like Captain Planet, never understood the propaga

Is there anything that EU can do about this. It's biggest economy is still a vassal state. Till you depend on America for protection you will have to play by their rules. What I believe Americans are confused about European reluctance
