Well, much as I hate to say it, this doesn't indicate that al-Qaida is a partner of Iraq. It's more of a call to arms on behalf of Iraq.

Yeah, I agree with you. I don't doubt that there are connections between Iraq and bin Laden, but I think pointing to this as some kind of new evidence is tenuous at best and has more of an appearance of grasping at straws to get the world to go along with us. I think we just need to accept the reality that we only have a precious few real allies, and go take care of business while telling the rest of them to...well...to shut up and stay out of the way unless they plan to really challenge us to protect Saddam.

We actually have many allies!! The entire Baltic nation states are backing us. Australia is with us. Italy and Spain are with us. And I read today, Canada has just announced to send in some troops, who are on their way and they may be supplying equipment such as planes and ships. And of course the Brits are on board. Turkey is with us. We have over a 21 nation coalition.

France and Germany and of course Russia are making alot of noise, but we have the support and help of many nations. Oh, I forgot India is also on board, and of course our one and truest ally in the ME, ISRAEL.

France doesn't even have an army, and but one military plane. Who needs 'em? And Germany is not really an ally. They have been supplying Iraq with WMD, it has been revealed, through their chemical companies.

Also, many Arab nations actually want Saddam out, and our supporting us, even though they are not as vocal as some for fear of uprise in their own countries.

We got it together!
