Great article...........well written. Its funny about Blair. Friedman is right on with him. Its easy to shout curses at Bush but its much harder with Blair. He seems so genuinely committed. As much as the Brits are angry with him re the war, they can't help but worry about his health, remarking in one article that he keeps his inhaler closeby. I think the Brits believe its Bush who has led Blair down the primrose path. <g> I also liked Friedman's comments re the meeting in the Azores. I too thought it would be with most of Europe in attendance. Instead, it was the three musketeers slapping each other on the bum! ted ______________________________________________________ nytimes.com Repairing the World By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN ome days, you pick up the newspaper and you don't know whether to laugh or cry. Let's see, the prime minister of Serbia just got shot, and if that doesn't seem like a bad omen then you missed the class on World War I. Our strongest ally for war in Iraq is Bulgaria — a country I've always had a soft spot for, because it protected its Jews during World War II, but a country that's been on the losing side of every war in the last 100 years. Congress is renaming French fries "freedom fries." George Bush has managed to lose a global popularity contest to Saddam Hussein, and he's looking to build diplomatic support in Europe by flying to the Azores, a remote archipelago in the Atlantic, to persuade the persuaded leaders of Britain and Spain to stand firm with him. I guess the North Pole wasn't available. I've been to the Azores. It was with Secretary of State James Baker on, as I recall, one of his seven trips around the world to build support for Gulf War I. Mr. Baker used the Azores to refuel.
