marcos suggests a group of democracies, such as NATO plus some others, be substituted for the US alone. Fine with me.

Wow, that's interesting. I didn't know that dictators have never been overthrown.

By the way, any idea who put the Baath Party in power in Iraq?

>>When enough israelis dislike Sharon, he will have to leave. When enough iraqis dislike Saddam, guess who gets to 'leave'?<<

Great logic! I applaud. Saddam has to leave, of course. You know whom he should turn his power and the Iraqis oil fields to under the “New World Order”? To whom it has thousands of times of WMDs and who is able to sent hundred of thousands troops to Iraqi boarder and threatening “preempt strike” and massive bombing right? BTW, Is it likely that the power and oilfields will in turn be secured by the foreign government who has the power to push U.S. to the war and who doesn’t need to pay a dime and send a single soldier to the war which it’s pushing? What a deal! It’s stupid not to push, right?

P.S. When a war-lord becomes disliked by enough of his own people, it would be too late to avoid the grave disaster for these people, Israel is no exception. If you don’t take the lesson from the history, take it later - the hard way.

Scared but Hopeful, More scared and less hopeful or Less scared and more hopeful, Good luck.
