His warning, raised first in his State of the Nation address on Tuesday, drew an angry reaction from Muslim countries throughout the Middle East.

Somebody let me know when they find a Muslim who isn't angry. Now there's a story.

But the most blunt message response came from North Korea. A spokesman for strongman Kim Jong Il said the nation was ready for war and had been wise to develop "powerful offensive and defensive means".

Something tells me that they haven't quite matched the power of our "offensive and defensive" means.........and anymore talk like that may call for a demonstration.

Undaunted by the strength of the reaction in the Middle East to his speech, Mr Bush reiterated his accusations against the three countries and warned that Washington was ready to act. He said all three nations were developing weapons of mass destruction. "They need to know our intention is to hold them accountable and the rest of the world needs to be with us, because these weapons can be pointed at them as easily as at us," he said. Iran, which Washington describes as the main state sponsor of terror ism, called Mr Bush -thirsty for human blood", while the Iraqi regime of Sad Hussein branded him "stupid, arrogant and irresponsible".

Hmmmmm.......Saddam Hussein calls him 'stupid, arrogant, and irresponsible'. Iran calls him 'thirsty for human blood'. Am I the only one laughing?

They need to know our intention is to hold them accountable and the rest of the world needs to be with us, because these weapons can be pointed at them as easily as at us

........and if they aren't with us we should simply ignore them......if they want to leave their umbrellas at home during a rainstorm, they can do as they wish.
