He's just adhering to the prevailing international behavior that favors any sort of totalitarian government, I thought it was because GST is SO ANTI-BUSH that he's lost all capacity for rational thought.. Hell, had Bush been president during WWII, GST would have been supporting Hitler and Mussolini.. And probably would have claimed the US deserved to be attacked by the Japanese empire.. But maybe the explanation is far simpler... LSD flashbacks? Hawk

<<<We've finally broken this unwritten rule (#reply-19903280) and are hated and feared.>>> We were already hated and still will be hated in the same manner that many in this country hate big corporations, the telephone companies, the oil companies. Big or powerful is bad. The fear part has been changed. Saddam thought he had won the Gulf War because he did not count the loss of Iraqi lives as a loss. So he did not fear America, and could say to his neighbors, no problem, just arm your people and we can fight them in the streets as they cannot stand the casualties. Ignore the UN resolutions. Now the US is applying fear, the terrorists own big card, against them in the war on terror. Support terrorists in your own country, and you could be the next Afghanistan or Iraq. Fund the terrorists, and we will freeze your bank accounts or impose sanctions. Defying the UN- by Saddam, by Palestine, by Israel, is customary and carries no severe penalty Stand in the way of the US and the ex-governor of Texas in this war on terror and you risk "severe consequences" This much has been proven.
