Disclaimer : I do admire great US companies such as Verisign,
Google, Amazon, etc.<br>
I like Apple, Coca Cola and Mickey Mouse.<br>
I'm still an Obama supporter, as I was four years ago (I can prove
it. It's on the Internet ;-))<br>
I like so called "America". A great nation. My mother married an US
marine. And half of my family are American people.<br>
<br>
I'm not either an anti-American nor a spy. Can we begin free talks
now?<br>

That was the result, for sure.<br>

Not necessarily the main intentions. "Procès d'intention" (Google
translate bugged, sorry...) are not fair, do you know?<br>

A journalist may have political opinions and may express them. The
journalist's duty is to prove what she/he says with documents or
arguments. He/she has to provide readers means for thinking. But
she/he cannot be deprived of freedom of thinking or speeching, isn't
it?<br>
<br>
As you are not a journalist, I guess, dear Koven, you may freely
write your opinion on this list...<br>
