Hawk, Bush is opposed to any foreign involvement in Iraq rebuilding. He thinks that the American people is willing to foot the cost even though he refuses to state how much it will cost. Recently, we have been hearing Colin say that the US is willing to involve others in Iraq rebuilding provided it does not dilute US influence in rebuilding efforts. So on the Iraqi front, the US has does not want anything to do with UN involvement

Now on to Liberia. The US has maintained and has finally obtained a UN resolution to enable it to send troops to Liberia. In the case of Liberia, the US encourages UN involvement.

Now my question to you: Do you think that there is a difference in approach by the US on the two issues, Iraq and Liberia. If your answer is no then why do you think so. If your answer is yes, what do you think is the reason for the US to approach these differently?

The approach to the N. Korean issue is also one of involvement by other nations. But that is something we will leave for some other day. Iraq and Liberia for now.
