"BTW the coalition that Bush Sr assembled was unprecendented and was quite amazing, to have so many disparate countries, over 100 if I recall correctly, signing on"

Yes indeed, it really was a remarkable accomplishment and Bush Sr. deserves to be recognized for this achievement. Schwarzkopf attributed our success to the morale boost that the soldiers received from knowing they had a mission that was accepted by all as legitimate -- he said recently that we should do everything possible to take any future actions in the same way, through the UN, and to avoid "going it alone". He emphasized how much it undermines morale to have a cloud over the legitimacy of the mission and referred to Vietnam as an example of how badly morale is affected by asking soldiers to fight when it is not clear that the mission is backed by a broad consensus.
