JLA--shouldn't you be a bit more hung up on North Korea, The Phillipines, Colombia, Venezuela, Pakistan and India, Afghanastan, and perhaps some other places including Iraq--than the people of France?

France is acting on behalf of the sentiment of its people who overwhelmingly oppose this war. Isn't this what a government should do, act upon the will of its people? Too bad British, Spanish, Italian and American leaders couldn't behave like the French.

Of course in each of those nations--Britain, Spain, Italy and America, the popular will if there will be a war is that it happen with United Nations support an endorsement.

I predict that without a second resolution that specifically sanctions military force, that America will lose the support of Britain, Spain and Italy and that it will, ironically be the government of the people, for the people and by the people, the United States of America, that will be standing alone for war, against the popular sentiment of its people.

That's sorta sad, isn't it?
