    You'd think this man would care enough about the lives of those he is sending to this war to try every option for peace.

    I am not surprised. It is obvious that the US warlords want to invade Iraq, at any price, no mattter what.

    The Europeans don't want to lose their contracted rights to suck on the iraqi oil reserve.

    So, you agree that the UN stalling effort is simply a european effort to protect satan for the sake of future development of iraqi oil reserves?

    Likely the French and Germans call for more time because they are renegotiating. The stall tactic works wonders to up the ante. Worked for Turkey too, to the tune of $US15 billion in loan guarantees. The Bush administration reacted with rage no doubt because they thought they had a deal. This has little to do with peace. Just watch how much France and Germany get.

    <--------- To Bowser:


    Hell no. I know what it is the warlords are sucking through that pipe and it isn't water, nor is it good, black, Afghani Hasj. If it was, the warlords would be sitting around the campfire and sing protest songs against themselves...
