#7 What will be interesting to watch in countries like France, we already know what will happen in PuttyPutzLand - nothing, is if the people will be outraged, angry, demand a housecleaning, realize the implications (especially regards the propaganda campaign of anti-Americanism, Iraq, etc.), et al. If they "get it" then, perhaps, they will stage a comeback. I've said it before, and received mainly deafening silence in response to the point, the ex-Allies have suffered from exceptionally egregiously moronic leadership. Yeah, they voted 'em in, but people can be fooled - especially if you play to their pre-existing fears. We came terrifyingly close in 2000 and 2004 to making the same mistake. A moment of pause should be, IMHO, in everyone's feedback loop before bashing...

So we'll be watching - and I'll be hoping - that they'll realize what BS they've been fed, how corrupt and crass and craven their leadership has been, and take steps to clean it up and come out of the Kool Aid pool.
