Coalitions are conveniences. WE'RE doing the heavy lifting. We don't NEED anybody. The closest thing to NEEDING anyone was Turkey, and we're going to stomp Saddam Hussain without touching Turkey.

That said, we have a coalition of 30 nations, probably twice that on the day the war starts. But you're pretty ignorant if you think the "coalition" has anything to do with the number troops we have in the region; We'll have 200K; the British will have 40K; nobody else will have over a couple thousand regardless of size of the coalition.


The war hasn't even started and we've had two or three major disasters. What makes you think the actual war will go smoothly?
