Ted, Re: "Maybe you should stick to subjects you know best or better yet, only post with your 4 year old daughter." Whooaa Ted ... You're sounding very "bitter" and "mean spirited" here. I guess your "vacation" didn't help take the "edge" off your posting style. Besides, not knowing your subject hasn't stopped you from posting ??!! <ggg> Make It So, Yousef

Ted, I see! This past week Bush went all the way to Prague begging to get NATO's support. The best he could come up with was NATO's condemnation of Iraq; however, they refused to give material support as he had hoped. How is this incompatible with what I said: "Nothing happens in NATO without US approval. And nothing happens without the US initiative." The statement says nothing about the US making our allies do what we want them to do. If the US was able to do that, the US would not be carrying such an overwhelming burden of paying for common defense, while the Europeans (and especially Canadians) are taking a free ride. The US wants NATO members do something, and is not all that successful, which is the same as when we wanted them to increase the defense spending. One thing you may want to notice is that the US did not ask NATO to be part of another offensive action (which is incompatible with NATO treaty). He just used the gathering to urge individual countries to help, outside of NATO. Joe
