Ain't Iraq remarkably quiet thru all this, for a Muslim nation dealing in weapons of mass destruction?Iraq strikes me in all this as the naughty brother, who, for once not the one in the most trouble, is watching quietly from behind his bedroom door, secretly enjoying the discipline being visited on his wayward sibling.
I note that China has been a bit quiet too, perhaps enjoying the fact that the heat is off it as well. Although, I wouldn't go using the sibling analogy there - maybe a cousin?
I, too, amd VERY suspect of China in all this. Reports say that they are also concerned about Islamic refugees infiltrating their country, but I'd be willing to bet they are enjoying all the terrorism that is happening on US soil. it wouldn't surprise me in the least if we find a link between Bin Laden and China.
