Don't ask me i haven't read an aussie paper in 3 weeks. There was plenty of antiwar stuff going on when i left, don't ask me what the mood is now. *sighs* i don't know, i have no idea what my position is. That may be because i've spent much of the last few days in trainsit on sweet fuck all sleep.

*shrugs*
Hurry up and overthrow the place, instate some utterly farcical democracy propped up for the next 10 years, cue human interest stories about Iraqi children on the hallmark channel and get the oil pumping so that we can all stop worrying our little heads over such issues when we should be trusting our governments who know better than us and get back to being true patriots by spending our savings so the consumer confidence index goes up.

You know every time we (the west) wade into the middle east we fuck things so badly it comes back and bites us hard on the arse, i wonder what is going to come out of this one. Saddam was the product of US foreign policy/interference, lets see what they come up with to replace him, it's a hard act to follow.
