Gus > But the American position is far more fragile and ephemeral than much of the world believes.

Actually, I believe that.

Coming around to the causes of the Iraq war again, here's a reason no-one ever thought about (not even you) -- Wolfie's libido. He made the war to impress his Muslim girlfriend.

>>President Bush’s neoconservative hawk Paul Wolfowitz, the Pentagon’s architect of the US invasion of Iraq, is dating a Muslim!

Wolfowitz, a married father of three, is said to be so blinded by his relationship with Riza, that influential members of the World Bank believe she played a key role in influencing the Pentagon official to launch the 2003 Iraq war. As his trusted confident, she is said to be one of most influential Muslims in Washington.

What they are said to share is a passion to establish democracy in the Middle East.

Riza, in her mid-fifties, was born in Tunis and grew up in Saudi Arabia. Her childhood is said to have done much to shape her commitment to democracy, equal rights and civil liberties in the Arab world based on her first hand experiences.<<

Truth is indeed stranger than fiction. Unless, of course, the bullshit has now reached unimaginable levels.
