Maurice, you are a good man and mean well but the Sheeple of the Planet are not in charge of anything and as such have no control over their destiny or anyone elses.......

Only a Benevolent Dominator can bring Peace to the Planet...

I'm presently working on a solution that I can post soon....

"Michael, I'd say most people [who have an opinion] hope that the USA can succeed. A lot of people doubt that they can succeed and wish they'd never tried, but they might still wish for success. "

Bravo. Succinct, and true- at least for my position. Nicely put, thank you.

Maurice-

We are in the second year of a war on terrorism (aka islamism, wahabbism etc). I personally see it as a war without end as it
is asymmetrical and the enemy consists of small groups of
suicidal fanatics who have WMD's. If we wait for the "new"
United Nations we will all perish sooner rather than later.

The USA has a proven record of leading its allies to victory. Right now
we are running a little short on allies. NZ has always been a good partner
in the war against evil, however, in the current war on terrorism it has been somewhat timid. Too many other countries are timid as well.

Cheers, Rick
