Not to say I told you so, but I told you so. The UK looks poised to jump on this WTO case that Antigua has been fighting. It’s also my belief that the online gambling sites that have given in to this new us “law” are doing so to prove the case that the US is operating within unfair trade practices. How better to prove their case than a substantial loss in revenue, while it is still legal for US companies to offer OTB and online lotteries.
Yeah, it all makes sense, and we can only hope, but the US (Bush) is “above everybody else and makes its own decisions”. Did Bush listen to the UN before invading Iraq ? So will he listen to the WTO ??? The only good news here is that with Tony Blair’s imminent departure, the UK has become a bit more outspoken, and seems to be willing to challenge the US on things. Look for immediate withdrawal of British troops from Iraq, as soon as Blair is gone.
