Kamikaze Ken. A divine wind. < Praying for a mighty wind, Mq. A mighty wind...

Meanwhile, I notice an increasing tendency for the USA to seek UN help in Iraq as the body count mounts and the election looms. If only my freely given sage advice on the NUN here over the past year had been taken, it all would have been dealt with half a year ago with minimal loss of life and without the vast and growing military expense.

The rabid Republican right whines and moans about the UN but now they are bleating around looking for an out and rescue from the UN, which unfortunately hasn't been given the constitutional foundations and institutional structure to do much in the context of jealous competing xenophobic nation states which belong with the anti-globalisation Luddites in the 19th century.

George W Bush should change course and get the UN Reconstitution Conference on the front burner and ditch the PNAC. Or face more kamikaze attacks from disaffected colonials. Beating against the wind is hard work after a year or ten. One could even capsize.
