#2 One wonders if we're bulking up in anticipation of losing the British troops if we don't get UN disapproval, and Blair falls from a revolt within his own party.

He's doing his damndest to do the right thing, and I have come to admire him for it. The comparisons between him and the incredible PR creature who was the previous occupant of the White House were unfair to him and, to my shame, biased me against him.

#5 The German Foreign Ministry warns against travels to Iraq.
Note: That warning has been issued on March 3 only. Before only caution was advised.
Hmmmm could it be that it is really dangerous to travel to Iraq these days? What has happened???
