there's 3 more years to prove that wrong. bush will prove all the doubters wrong, just wait and watch. tony Blair just doesn't want to get hit. he will play a more quiet role from the rear, but he will not falter either. there will be an American presence in Iraq for a LOOOOONG time. just like every other confrontation in the past. it's the way of people who care enough to expend all kinds of effort to squash discrimination and exploitation in the world. someone has to deal with these problems, we are the only country,besides the u.k., that has the conviction to dive right in despite what the pussies of the world would want to happen. " oh, it's so mean, we just don't think that's the right way, waaaahhhhh" fucking pussies! if your so smart then what is the right way? no one seems to have a answer. so while they're waffling, the terrorists are regrouping and planning future attacks. the way it is now they can't recruit, plan or much else very effectively. and it will only get harder for them, cause the rope is tightening up and were going to drop the platform eventually!
