U.S.-German rift reaches schoolyard level
by Dolemite at 11:45 am EST, Mar 24, 2003

The U.S.-German clash over war in Iraq has filtered down to Murfreesboro, Tenn., where a high school has canceled precisely the kind of student exchange that is supposed to promote mutual understanding.

More than a dozen students from Hamburg's Sachsenweg School were to depart this Tuesday until their hosts suggested they stay home rather than bring "anti-American feeling," said Sachsenweg English teacher Jutta Kuehn. The German agency that coordinates educational exchanges said other programs also have been called off.

The 'boro makes Salon.com, but not in the best way.
