re:but the reality is that the more WMD are MIA, the more the Right touts our humanitarian efforts in Iraq. Excuse me if I am suspicious of their motivation.

You would be, but if we had found WMD we would now be touting the humanitarian efforts anyway - it's sort of the next step.

Who's says its the next step? Its the next step because there are no WMD. And if you really believe what you're telling me, then you've caught that dreaded African disease......Da Nile......from Mr. Ray. <g>

re:Do you mean you really care?

Of course, I think there's about ten dictators in Africa that need removal - starting with Mugabe in Zimbabwe.

But we have no national interest so nothing will happen, no other nation seems to have a "national interest" either, including the spineless UN.

Actually, France has sent troops and the UN is involved on some level. But there can be no pretense....without oil, the Congo can not be of "national interest" to the US.
