And at this key juncture the West stands disunited. Condi Rice told the Senate that the "time for diplomacy is now." Give me a break. The time for diplomacy was two years ago. We would be so much better off now if the entire European Union was actively urging Iraqis to vote, and using its own moral legitimacy in the Arab world to delegitimize the insurgents. The divided West is a real liability.


Oh, give me a break, Tom. You think Colin Powell didn't try? Knowing what we know know about Chirac's grandiose multipolar ambitions, and the size of the bribes he was taking from Saddam, what sort of diplomacy do you think would have worked?
