re,middle east.We might be in for an ugly surprise.looking at the elections in pakastan and what has happened in kuwait a wave of anti americanism may become a real problem,at least that is what they are talking about on italian state radio.there in also talk about a monetary union for the middle east which could lead to greater pan arab unity which would probably not be in US interests.

"All the propaganda about an Iraq threat is just a marketing job to sell the public on a war of conquest.. "

George, I think the fear is not that Iraq has the power to out right attack us, but that they will threaten the region and us with chemical, biological, and ultimately nuclear weapons, either directly or by using terrorist surrogates.

Ron Paul has been a very interesting figure in Texas politics for some years. He is really a libertarian, rather than a conservative Republican. My own opinion, FWIW, is that his fears are exaggerated.
