I am sure that is how some of the middle east will see it. They will probably strap explosives to themselves and go and hug the nearest pale blue beret they can find.

infidel? oooh. . .according to who's definition? according to osama, saddam already is an infidel. if according to traditional islamic defition, that person would not be an infidel if he believed that there is but one god and allah is his name, and followed the other tenets of islam. course, if you use an islamic fundamentalist definition, then association with the West is de facto (see Iran).

That once again is way too idealistic. Our main goal is to create an environment that is more stable for Americans. No a Catholic prez would not be the answer, but not everyone in Iraq is happy with the current situation, and would be thrilled with a new leader. There would be hostilities. But it will be safer for the U.S. with Saddam gone for sure.

I was worried that you were suggesting Carl Palmer was going to be in charge of Iraq. Iraq is in Asia and all…….
