Hi snugs. You're welcome, as always. I see GWB and Tony Blair pretty much got the statement they wanted from the G8 re the Middle East crisis. Koizumi, Harper and the new German Chancellor probably helped swing the day.

I think you are probably correct. Interesting that the adviser that Tony Blair bought with him obviously from his name is of Jewish origin.

For someone who supposedly defies international cooperation, Dubya seemed to have little trouble working with the other summit members and getting them to see things his way.

I like the pictures of him with all those other world leaders. You all are right that the body language is telling. They just can't help but like him.

Notice how Koizumi's hand is lightly resting against Dubya's.
