"A World Without America"
No, silly, it's not Dennis Kucinich's new presidential campaign slogan, it's the title of a PR ad produced in Britain:
"At a time of rampant anti-Americanism, this ad - produced with BritainAndAmerica.com - aims to remind the world of the great economic, technological and political benefits that the US has brought to the world."
And there's more where that came from . . . innovation, progress and vision, I mean.
ADDENDUM:
Examples of "rampant anti-Americanism" in the headlines:
1. Italy protesters threaten to block work at US base: "Protesters yesterday threatened to block construction work to enlarge a US military base in the northern Italian city of Vicenza that has divided the centre-left government . . . “If no one will listen to us and the bulldozers arrive, we will put ourselves before them to block them,” said Cinzia Bottene, leader of a group opposed to the expansion . . . Former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi, who leads the centre-right opposition, also waded into the debate, saying the demonstration was an expression of anti-US sentiment. “Anti-American feelings now dictate the government’s policies,” Berlusconi, a staunch US ally, told Il Mattino newspaper."
2. Japan leftists own up to blast near US base: "A Japanese extreme left-wing group claimed responsibility yesterday (02/17/07) for a small explosion near a US army base outside Tokyo ahead of US Vice-President Dick Cheney’s visit to Japan . . . “It is an preemptive attack to stop Vice-President Cheney’s visit to Japan,” the statement added, attacking moves to strengthen the US-Japan military alliance."
3. Cheney Starts Japan Trip Amid Criticism of Iraq War: "Cheney, 66, arrived in Tokyo late today, less than three weeks after Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Aso called U.S. policy in Iraq ``naive.'' Last month, Defense Minister Fumio Kyuma said President George W. Bush made a ``mistake'' in starting the war . . . Outside Mr Cheney's hotel last night, a van with loudspeakers caused a brief disturbance as nationalists shouted slogans such as "Yankee go home".
4. Protecting the Wall against marchers: "Some veterans are up in arms over plans by anti-Iraq-war demonstrators to assemble next month at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial . . . The Military Order of the Purple Heart, Rolling Thunder and other veterans groups are promising to form a protective ring around the Wall, which they consider "hallowed" ground. Purple Heart national commander Tom Poulter said his members are outraged that the protesters would "even consider gathering near the Wall." . . . One fear is that someone may try to spray-paint the memorial as protesters did to the U.S. Capitol last month."
