This is by far the strangest post I've ever read.

"My "stand" is that we -- and by "we" I mean China, Russia, US, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Lebanon, etc., etc., etc., will win as secular modern states fighting the romantic, foolish forces who are legends in their own minds.

But the enemy is resourceful, and dishonorable, so we will suffer the murder of many of our infants, children, pretty women in bathing suits, old men and women in wheelchairs, shopkeepers in their shops, businesspeople on their way to work, etc., etc., etc., and it will be very sad for us. But we will keep going and we will prevail, because we have no choice."


Lets see, where to start. First of all your list contains countries that will never take the side of America, namely Iraq, Pakistan, China, Russia and Lebanon and if they can get rid of the corrupt Saudi family, the Arabian Peninsula.

Matter of fact, Pakistan has a leader propped up by the USA against the will of the people as does Afghanistan as well as Saudi Arabia. The Pakistani people are rabidly anti American and that will NEVER change.

So what are you saying? Are you implying that the people of these countries will take the side of America or just the corrupt politicians, like that murderer Allawi?

Oh and by the way your war is a war by extremist hypocritical evangelistic so called Christianity (although Christ would never endorse these groups because they meddle in pollitics, something Christ never did).

Your political map is based on the present leaders of certain countries which has no real bearing on reality.

America and the UK (lesser extent Australia) stand alone in the world with the rest of the world hoping it stumbles.

Here is an example:

UNITED NATIONS -- For the 13th straight year, the U.N. General Assembly overwhelmingly urged the United States to end its more than four decade trade embargo against Cuba, rejecting Washington's argument that Fidel Castro is "a tyrant" who denies basic human rights to Cubans.

The Cuban-sponsored resolution calling for the embargo to be repealed "as soon as possible" was approved by a vote of 179-4 with one abstention, very similar to last year's vote of 179-2 with two abstentions.
