Hi Iqbal,

Re: The junta of Gaddafi, Saddam and Assad were some of the biggest proliferators of terror in our region,

I find it completely remarkable that you haven't mentioned Ariel Sharon. To many of observers Sharon appears to be the greatest terrorist in the region.

Re: I fail to understand why you are not rejoicing even if the peace has been bought

I suppose I should be patriotic and cheer when Halliburton, Exxon and the other oil companies get the best shot at Libya's oil wealth? Somehow, I've managed to segregate what George Bush deceitfully calls the "national interest" from what is actually in the interest of the citizens of the U.S. Bush's meddling across the planet is not in our interest.

How ironic that Bush can promise the Iraqis universal health care while in his own country, he allow 43 million of his own citizens live with the terror that they have no health insurance and if they are struck by a catastrophic illness, they may well be helped by the medical profession, but at the cost of personal bankruptcy.

It is George Bush's insane priorities, from the viewpoint of what is good for the average citizen, that has me so furious about this member of the Lucky Sperm Club.
