Kevin Tibble used the term "Arab Coalition", not me. He probably meant "radical islamic shia states", "radical islamic sunni states", essentially the entire mideast excepting that lone democratic state known as Israel, opposes US action. I wonder when we start some sort of offensive against bin laden and his network (which by definition encompasses the Taliban), what the reactions of these nations are going to be. Except perhaps for Jordan, there are no trustworthy Islamic states. None. If the US has to go it alone so be it. The only thing that matters is the survival of our nation.
