Jacob, I was talking specifically about the PR war. I think that there will be a positive synergistic effect on the PR front if OBL is captured at about the same time Bush pulls the trigger on Saddam. Certainly in the US and perhaps in the UK, too.

Capturing OBL would be a great impetus to the war-marketing effort, as your cohort might say.

Support from other countries would be nice, and Bush has done a lot to try to get it, but it's not essential.

The Hawks have no chance of success, if they don't begin to inject a little Realism into their thinking process.

Exactly what kind of success are you talking about? I'm hard put to decipher whether you mean military, political, etc., success. I'm not being obtuse. Moreover, I apologize for asking what may seem like a stupid question. Unfortunately I have great difficulty with open-ended terms and open-ended discussions.
