Bush the Uniter In campaigning for the White House, President Bush described himself as 'a uniter, not a divider." Well, Bush may have split NATO, torn apart the Security Council, and divided the country, but he's managed to get two of the world's most committed antagonists to agree on at least one point. As the BBC reports, both Pakistan and India have announced they strongly oppose any US military adventurism in Iraq. Of course, the countries have somewhat different reasons for standing against Washington's plans, and a joint statement on Iraq from Islamabad and Delhi is a verified longshot. Popular opposition to the war is remarkably strong in both countries, but neither government wants to alienate the US. So, while they trade diplomatic barbs and artillary shells over Kashmir, the governments of India and Pakistan can take solace in the fact that, on at least one issue, they are in the same position. motherjones.com
