Two can play at that

Two can play at that game

Now don't choke on your freedom fries or anything, but "a growing number of restaurants in Germany are taking everything American off their menus to protest the war in Iraq."

There follows a list of examples of anti-coca cola or Starbucks activism, and the usual catalog of MacDonald's-oriented civil disobedience.

This is neither here nor there, but something about this sentence, cracks me up a litte:

The conflict has struck a raw nerve in a country that became decidedly anti-war after the devastation of World War II, which it initiated.

Let it not be said that this report failed to "provide context."
