Wow, you did a great job in portraying these two. It's one of those things I've often thought about, the fact that they've become so similar and yet still antagonize each other...like they're each other's familiar distractions from bigger, more daunting problems.
Also, the "America could never say, for example: What the fuck do you all expect from me, anyway?" part. EXACTLY. Thank you. Europe really doesn't have the right to criticize us when they were the ones who forced us out of political isolation in the first place =( All we wanted was to trade and blockade-run.
