On the BBC World News last night - BTW the only one I watch, can bring myself to watch - except the CBC occasionally - the Spanish Ambassador to the UN was interviewed and he was mouthing the same lies as the Admisistration and Blair - one wonders how all of ths is playing in Spain where the largest anti-war rallies of all took place. What sort of payoff does Spain anticipate, ditto Italy? Whatever the outcome, Blair is no longer untouchable in the UK

On the eve of a potential U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, the Army's top two leaders and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld have intensified a long-running feud that underscores a bitter rift between the military's largest branch and the Pentagon's civilian boss.

Rumsfeld was angry that White had failed to rebuke the Army's chief of staff — Gen. Eric Shinseki — for insisting it could take "several hundred thousand" U.S. troops to occupy postwar Iraq.

Rumsfeld: "Lie for me or get fired"

said Rumsfeld felt White was disloyal and came close to firing him for not repudiating Shinseki's estimates.
