Far from "begging" for help from nations like France, he's giving them another opportunity to join in doing the right thing. (Something that has been on the table since the beginning.)

Will they? I have no idea, but history will record their decision and mark them.

87 Billion. A necessary payment. Is the 66 billion included in the 87 billion?

Bush is a good man. Puts the buden on the Iraqis to eventually govern themselves.

Putting our money on the line to facilitate that (good investment, IMO).

He is a good man, a very good man.

That just bears repeating.

"60,000 Iraqis defending their country... ready to take the next step toward self-government... submitting a timetable for a constitution... have confidence in the ability of the Iraqi people to govern themselves... our strategy in Iraq will require new resources... also in Afghanistan... 87 billion dollars... military and intelligence operations... also support our commitment to Iraq and Afghanistan to rebuild, improve security, restore basic services (electricity, water, schools, roads, medical clinics) ...we will support our troops and keep our word...Powell will meet with other nations to discuss their contributions ... they should contribute to that success." (Ha. F***ing france...)

I doubt it. The yellow bellies will continue to hide in fear, only coming out when they can benefit.
