U.S. Considers Returning to U.N. for Help in Iraq Sat July 19, 2003 10:54 AM ET By Evelyn Leopold UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - With U.S. troops being killed every week in Iraq, the United States is considering returning to the United Nations to persuade countries to send in soldiers or share costs, running about $4 billion a month.

And Americans are not feeling safer today than the days before the Iraq war. The second simple question: Are you a Zionist?
