"While Arafat was grinning beside Bill, he wasn't feeling like blowing up anyone" I'd love to hear that the sudden upsurge in worldwide violence since Junior's reign started can be avoided by some other means than straight-ahead military takeover of the planet. I haven't, yet. So far, it's a takeover, with lots of euphemisms, excuses and "not really, it's just the war on terror, you understand..." type of explanations. A permanent lifelong war that declares the US to be above other nations' sovereignty is a takeover for all practical purposes. And an unnecessary one, if you believe American business and culture was doing the job anyway, albeit in a more peaceful way.
