The Iraqi government is against it.

Can a single 'man" force a nation to fight a war it does not want to fight, expand a war it does not want to expand ? If he can, is that nation any longer a democracy in any meaningful sense ?
Didnt Saddam think he could do what he wanted too regardless of world opinion? And wasnt it the USA who said......"the world has spoken?" before we invavded, set up a puppet government, and occupied a foreign nation?

It seems as though bush has taken the same path as hitler, saddam and others, in the sense that t(he)y thought t(he)y could do what they wanted without concern for the rest of the worlds opinion or permission.

and now, back to the topic......

Bush's crusade has not worked out well for him. He thought the overthrow of the Saddam would be easy and that he would be a hero of the world.
Reality is......he fucked up huge.
He has lied and bamboozled the American people and the world for that matter.
His war on Terror has been a joke. The strategies for fighting this war have been wrong from the beginning and now he is in the middle of a shit sandwich with no easy way out.
George Bush has created more terrorists than Osama Bin Laden ever did.
