As similar idea was batted around here a while ago. As I remember, the idea was to get the US, UK, Canada, Australia, India and Japan together to form a military force. This force would have as it’s one goal combating terrorism.

I like the idea personally.

IIRC, Sen. McCain (pbuh) had mentioned an alliance of nations thet would reflect the western vp....one of the few good ideas, besides Gov. Palin, the PWB (prez wanna be) had.

That was my idea :-) but it did not limit the alliance to fighting terrorism. Japan for one has not been a victim of any terror attack on their soil. So an “anti-terror” alliance will not get much interest from them. The idea is to expand the scope of the alliance - include economic, military and social subjects in its scope.
