To: gkhong
And how many are sending troops? When that is used as the criteria, unilateral almost fits.
To: nypokerface
Fred Barnes was on Fox last night after the Bush's address and stated this is the 3rd largest military coalition in WORLD HISTORY. Surpassed only by the Persian Gulf War (50 I think) and WWII (47 I think).

We can't have all these countries acting unilaterally! It would be world anarchy!

Where's Portugal, the host of last weekend's war council (in the Azores)?

And if you just look at Republics with presidents with last names beginning in "Bu...", it most certainly approaches unilateralism!
To: Sangamon Kid
And how many are sending troops? When that is used as the criteria, unilateral almost fits. We have Briton & Australia plus a few more small contributors. We don't need anyone else. Too many just get in the way.

How many of these countries were part of the USSR?? My map is out of date.
Maybe putting Germany back together wasn't the right thing for the world.

Poland is sending I think 300 troops. Not much, but I wonder how big their military is...
To: Principled
Ever see a Great White Shark with remoras attached up and down it's body? We may have 30, but most are parasites/
To: Oldeconomybuyer
I would think Kuwait should be on that list.
To: Sangamon Kid
sharks and parasites.... hmmmn...you'll have to clairify..
To: Sangamon Kid
How can it "almost" fit? That makes no sense.
To: Principled
sharks and parasites.... hmmmn...you'll have to clairify.. Remoras are parasites (sucker fish) that attach themselves to sharks. They may go into battle, but they're only there because they've been living off the host fish. The point that I'm making is that this one of the most pathetic coalitions of all time, 30 or not.
