Do you know anything about the agenda of the Germans who had this transcript done?

I know that 200,000 Germans held a candlelight vigil in Berlin a couple of days after the attacks in support of the U.S. Pictures were posted here on FR.

That's more than turned out here in the U.S. If you are going to suggest that Germans hate the U.S. you can pick a different fellow to foist that assertion upon.

That's got nothing to do with what I said. I said that these people who happen to be German are presumably total strangers to you, yet you take their word as Gospel. Just because 200,000 people who happen to be from the same country as they are held a candlelight vigil is irrelevant.

Again, people who sell newspapers make more money when they can imply something sensational than when they report the bland truth. Because of that, you should be careful what you believe, especially if it's coming from an unkown entity.

When you present this kind of report as fact or as "proof" of something, as you said, it reveals your agenda as anti-Bush, even to the extent of defending Osama Bin Laden.
