I agree. It was sad that Americans could read more about the Clinton scandals in the Telegraph than any American papers.

Three cheers for the Brits and the Australians. Truly America's best friends past, present, and future.

I can't even begin to tell you how proud and happy I am as I watch the free Iraqi's on television! I have been brought to tears and it is wonderful! I wan't to thank the Brits who have proved to be quite superior.... and shamefully I admit my mistake of thinking they could never be as tough, as good and as strong as the United States military! Thank you for proving me wrong!!!!!

I met a traveler from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read, Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed, And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings: Look upon my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away. -Percy Bysshe Shelley 1792-18

Thought we needed to see it!

Great posting Ivan! Extremely relevant....

Please enlighten me on something regarding British slang. Some Iraqis were carrying a sign calling the so called human shields "wankers." I realize it is a slur roughly equivalent to someone in the US calling them "c*cks." I just would like to assure myself of the nuances of the term. Would you please be kind enough to elucidate?

George W Bush is constantly attacked in Europe for being stupid and narrow,

To me this has been dejavu all over again. Reagan was attacked the same way in Europe. They save their Nobel Peace prizes for guys like Arafat, Mandela, and Carter. American values(Brits too I hope) and European values haven't been this far apart for generations, too bad for Europe IMHO.

Oliver North Just report on Fox News that he has personally seen, in his sector of the city, two bodies hanging from lamp posts with Arabic signs about their necks that read "Ba'ath Party Official". He also said that the locals have taken up arms and are killing the tyrants, that he has passed numerous dead bodies that were not shot by the troops. To Freedom!
