one news outlet has run stills from the video, but framed in such a way so as not to show their faces. I just saw the pictures on CNN and have to draw back my complaint. I surely did not vote for showing faces.
You are mistaken here. The UN consists out of a few less than 200 member nations. Rumsfeld calls 46 of them allies. I really doubt that all those nations like that. The overwhelming majority of those 46 are highly dependend on US economics (who is not) and have been visited not by government officials but economic high players (such as some good old friends from the oil industrie) just before they changed their attitude by "free will".

So to would I add that the reality of September 11, 2001, has not faded from anyone's memory. It is with those images in mind, and prevention of future events far graver, that the majority of the US public supports the removal of Saddam's regime. All of us (exept some brainwashed muslim extremists) suffered aside with the US on Sptember 11. I myself was sitting in front off my TV and have honestly been weeping for the first time since approximatly tens of years. But do you really think the States (and the world) will get a saver place by the iraq invasion? My god - the future will unfortunately tell you something else.
Just right know the turks seem to use the situation invading the kurdish aereas illegaly. That will have deep impact on terrorist attacs against europe because we´ve got Nato forces in turkey an PKK activists everywhere in our homelands. Thanks a lot George, we were really looking forward to that. What do you think should we attack the turks? Please do not tell me that it´s not a consequence of war. Any of those countless old conflicts in the region could break up. Are the american forces really able to control that? Do you really think those arab countries are comparable to germany´s situation after WWII. Then you should compare our political history before adolf hitler with the iraqi history. All this is just too simple. I´m sorry - but anyone who does inform himself aside the official statements from the US government knows about the impact of that war on all of us - and it will definitly be no change to the better.
