Oh, good grief, we're at war with Milton-under-Wychwood? Who knew?

What a great find! Thanks...

As for "the support of the Arab League", that's one of those exotic shimmering mirages that looks dandy from a distance, but fades to nothing when you try to drink from its limpid pool and wind up with a mouthful of camel dung.

Oh, yeah, I love this sentence.

"Multilateralism"? A week ago, about 6,000 Royal Marines and more than 1,000 of Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry were on 48-hour stand-by for Afghanistan. Then London and Ottawa were informed by the Pentagon that they would not be needed.

The NA preferred the Russians.

"...- with the supposedly seething "Muslim street", where bin Laden T-shirts are gathering dust on the discount racks..."
Where is this? A workshirt is a workshirt, Laden or no Laden, I need some.

LOL, great stuff. Steyn just has a way with words, coupled with that dry wit it makes for some fun reading.
