Something tells me that Hans (ignorance is) Blix caught some heat for his soft ball presentation to the U.N. the last time. Blix never mentioned the fact that Saddam Hussain and Iraq was in breech of U.N. Res. 1441 and all the other resolutions going all the way back to U.N. Res. 687. I was very angry after watching Hans Blix's presentation and France's response to Colin Powell's convincing presentation.

In my humble opionion, The only reason why we are having a problem with France and Germany is the fact that George W. Bush doesn't look to the U.N. for leadership, he looks at the U.N. as a gathering of nations that are lacking a leader and when he gave his speech on Sept. 12th, 2002 and trashed their inability to lead. France and Germany took his speech as a threat to their influence in the U.N. body. GWB made the U.N. look completely useless with that speech and I think it didn't sit well with France and Germany and their ambitions to make the EU a force to be reckoned with.

I hope that this whole situation will open the eyes of those around the world that we are serious about human rights and that tin horn Dictators will no longer be ignored. I watched a USO toyr for our troops earlier today and I heard a comedian say that he would pump ESPN2 to every third world country on the planet and let them see what we create when we are bored. We build and drive 325 MPH Top Fuel Dragsters that travel the 1/4 mile in less tham 5 seconds just because we are bored, We build space ships because we need to learn about things most don't even contemplate. Piss us off by attacking our country and killing the innocent and see what we can build

Whoops ! I see that my post was misunderstood. It was meant as a compliment. Rants can be good (you know, when you just let it all out) or they can be hot air.

Sincerely sorry if you thought I was dissing MJY1288.

I really appreciate an impassioned comment and that's what I meant.
