Best solution is when traveling, forget the return ticket, Red hands.

He probably had to go into Iraq...but he could've done it w/ worldwide support if he hadn't been such a headstrong cowboy..

So exactly how would he have gathered world wide support in lieu of thefact that France and Germany would NEVER have allowed any war to go forward with Iraq due to their substantial investments in that country? Sometimes one has to do what is right and accept the consequences for that action. Most of the rest of the world was unwilling to take any action; just as no one was willing to take action to stop hitler in ww2 until he had amassed so much power...

After this is over, the rest of the world will breathe a sigh of relief that saddam is gone and will go on hating the US and other other nation or individuals they deem to be rich and powerful. (The world press does an excellent job of fueling the politics of envy)Possibly ask the Shiite's in the south or the Kurds in the north how they feel after it is over.

Bottom line George is doing what needs to be done and is finishing a job that should have been accomplished before he took office. In the meantime, I sincerely wish you safe passage in your travels abroad.
