Mind you, I believe that many people from all walks throughout the world were secretly satisfied to see what went down on 9/11 We all see in others what we have inside ourselves.

Good points. I'm going to have a hard time getting used to this new interface. Anyone else having problems?

<not only is the Muslim world united against us, but the world in general.> Far from it Dennis. While the leaders of individual countries might predominantly be against the USA, British, Oz invasion of Iraq, there are plenty of people in favour of it. New Zealand for example is officially against the Coalition of the Willing, with Helen Clark maintaining that processes should continue through the United Nations, not via war. But there are plenty of people in NZ who disagree. I think about half the population or maybe up to 70% is against a Coalition of the Willing invasion of Iraq without UN restated blessings. Helen Clark [I suspect] wants to replace Kofi some time, and rule the world. Where We the Sheeple are united is that we don't want to have the USA ruling the world with a Guantanamo Bay for recalcitrant aliens. We would like to see a New World Order which is properly constituted [France doesn't need to have a veto for example] and which protects national identity, property and right to run the show how the locals want. We want human rights to apply not just to Americans. We want American War Criminals to be tried by the United Nations [Lt William Calley for example - wet bus tickets for international murdering criminals is unacceptable]. We fear an American Empire. We have seen a lot of empires. The locals get the short end of the stick when empires are rampant. Also, no taxation without representation and those other Declaration of Independence things too. We need a UN with teeth and a rule book. Mqurice
