Tejek,

"Then Condi, the twit, took it to the UK......to help Blair instill some fear into the Brits."

What really surprised me was that UK join US in Iraq. An average american is quite ignorant (though often kind-hearted and generous) and doesn;t want to bother with world events. To many American Saddam, Osama and Mohammad and Ahmadenejad may all sound the same and they must be linked and of course, trusted their leader after being shaken up after 9/11.

Blair and Britain with their experience from the colonial days should have known better - the culture, the terrian, the intercation between sunnis/shia/kurds etc etc.

They must have felt they US something from WW2 days (and they certainly did, IMO) that they had to allign with the hawks.
