Therefore, you can take it that New Zealand and I bet a lot of other countries will be supporting the USA in exterminating Saddam Hussein and any other barbarian medieval murderers they find on their travels.
Hey, good for you, Maurice! I'm sure New Zealand and Great Britain will be supporting us openly, and lots of countries in the Middle East will be supporting us very quietly IF we convince them we will follow through this time. Of course, our friends in France will still be whining about our simplisme. Let'em.
I'm sure that you're right about the Iraqis. Heck, they surrendered to Italian camera crews the last time around, and the Iraqi army was stronger then. My big worry is what and whom will Saddam be able to blow up if he thinks he's going down? Can we get him fast enough to prevent it?
Now Irish Americans understand a bit more closely, thanks to the WTC attack, just what 'freedom fighting' bombings look like up close and personal. It's ugly and evil. I bet there is some rich irony in the rubble of the WTC.
It does look different when it happens to you or yours, doesn't it? As the BBC can attest. When Fatah or Hamas set off a car bomb in Jerusalem, they're "militants". But when the IRA sets off a car bomb in London, well then it's another story, those IRA are "terrorists". No kidding. |
