Jacques Chirac is deeply saddened. Fortunately he doesn't have much time to dwell on this - he's too busy shredding documents. :)

While the burden on the U.S.A. and its' allies is tremendous, the UN apparently thinks controlling Iraq with sanctions is suitable for controlling Saddam.

They ignore the atrocitites against his own people as if it was no big deal. Well, it was a big deal and it won't happen again, at least not with Saddam as the Leader of Iraq.

GOD BLESS THE U.S.A.!!

The Iraqi's know full well that it was the UN and their hateful cohorts in France, Germany, and Russia who kept them starving and suffering.

LOL. On this momentous day there's only one other person in the entire world as puckered up as So-Dumb Insane. Jackie-boy.

It'll take a firehose and a ten-pound sledge hammer to keep Chirac cleared out.
