Which is totally irrelevant. You stated that the money spent on the Iraq
war could do all those great things, yet you and your fellow Euros sit on
your collective asses and do nothing but complain.

All three of which were involved in Saddam's Iraq monitarilly and had
reason to resist the inevitable shutdown of bad influences there.

Key US allies who're no longer key allies, you mean.

Another pissant country heard from.

There is? News to me.

Personally, I think it's in bad taste to show pictures of the dead on TV
news programs. Even if they are in a casket. I think the news media, being
as left biased as you are, wouldn't let that bother them.

The initial war with Saddam ended 5 years ago. Had we not stayed to take
out the insurgents and Iranian terrorists, you wouldn't be safe in your
house tonight.

 WD> Take care,

Same to ya...
