Amy, <China Calls for Immediate Halt to War on Iraq>

The same China that rolled tanks over student protesters in Tiennamen Square? I would not take China's statement as anything other than obstructionism from a potential competing superpower.

Meanwhile, South Korea has expressed support for the war:

South Korea's newly inaugurated President Roh Moo-hyun Wednesday pledged his country's support for the U.S.-led military strike on Iraq, saying that Seoul was working to head off any adverse effect it might have on relations with North Korea.

In a televised address shortly after the war in Iraq began, Roh said he believed the military action was taken "upon the failure of diplomatic efforts to resolve the Iraqi problem in a peaceful manner."

Roh said Seoul would provide support on a humanitarian, economic, and medical level in post-war Iraq, as well as help strengthen the military.

The Korea Times reported that Roh had pledged to dispatch up to 750 non-combat troops to Iraq.

The U.S. State Department says South Korea is one of 30 member countries -- including the U.S. -- of what it has called the "Coalition for the Immediate Disarmament of Iraq."
