It would still be viewed as outsiders - and lets face it, hurting fellow Muslims doesn't tend to stop these people, it would still get attacked. There really isn't much you can do from here, it's as good as finished. They can't stop the attacks, thus can't get the place stable and the continuing attacks are turning more and more people against them. Iraq is descending into civil war anyway - you think the elections in January were ever going to work? The only war the US will get a government it will be happy with is by rigging them anyway. How are they planning in holding elections in the increasing numbers of 'no-go zones' anyway, they're starting to include a fair number of major population centres.

The only thing you can do now is get rid of bush and his cronies that lied to the world to carry out their personal ideologies and sacrificed the lives of over 1000 US troops for the benefit of Israel and their own fat pockets. Wolfowitz, Perle, Rumsfeld, Cherny and Feith. Not only have they wrecked havoc on international relations but by extension their actions have spat on the democratic systems of Britain and Australia as well by feeding them blatantly false intelligenge to lie to their populations as well.

Jag, I agree with you, but I have some bad news. The bombing in Jakata has given John Howard's election campaign a bit of a lift. People here are more worried now about future terrorism against us, than they are about whether we were lied to re Iraq. I have heard that a similar feeling has developed in the US. What are people thinking in the UK?

Unfortunately, the Democrats supported a guy who cannot make a proper argument against the Iraq War. He was asked the relevant questions on the Imus in the Morning Program yesterday and he blew it. He needs to come out and say his VOTE FOR THE WAR was a huge mistake. He can't pretend to have been mislead, everyone who paid attention KNEW we were being mislead. Bush's huge weakness is his inability to recognize and admit his errors, Kerry needs to show that he is bigger than the f cking pipsqueak.
