>>Aren't you afraid of "vicious" Cameroon attacking us?<<
No, but I am afraid of Russia, China, and Iran acting together under UN authority.

While Russia and China could certainly be a threat, they are also not stupid. While MAD officially doesn't exist, they know that if they start anything, we would retaliate.
So, they are not about to start WW III over Iraq. They have power, have weapons, but know the responsibility that goes with it.
Chirac, on the other hand, seems to think he is Napoleon. Deluded people like that are much more dangerous, because they are too stupid to really consider the consequences of their actions.
