It is sad that leading anti-war figures seem as willing to dodge the issues as Blair and co.
But that doesn't mena these people speak for Iraqis. i read an article by an Iraqi professor recently who very strongly opposed the war.
I'll try and find it......
When are you going to understand and admit to yourself that the war on terror and forthcoming war on Iraq have absolutely nothing to do with each other?
If any Americans try to blame Germany, France, etc for a terrorist attack on US soil, then those invididuals are will have proven to have all the brainpower of pond amobea (just like their leader).

Everyone knows the Iraqi regime is unpleasant, the issue is whether a war is justified.
