28. "The world" understands that the Bush admin is a warmongering neo-con threat.
I mean "the well informed world", of course, since the beliefs of the uninformed are simply plastic.

That fact became clear almost immediately he was elected. Facts speak for themselves. Bush has had a very low public opinion rating worldwide, on a country by country basis, for a long time - and those with a low opinion of Bush have had the same long time to watch Bush in action.

Bush is a front man for an extemist ideology. That's a well-documented fact.
Getting rid of Bush, of the Bush admin, doesn't get rid of the ideology.

I think a lot of people in the more informed world community question to what extent there's understanding *within the US* that the neocon ideology that's been plundering the world "eats its own". To what extent all people, even "free" citizens of the US, are in danger. Personally, I don't have much hope for the right kind of change in US politics and policies if the general body politic of the US continues assenting to a neocon framing which contradicts the reality of who is being hurt, who is being terrorized, and for what end.
