#4 Must have outward one voice no matter what.

Tim Blair linked to this:

CHEESE-EATING SURRENDER ... VULTURES?

Prime Minister John Howard today led a scathing attack on France for its strong opposition to war on Iraq ... Federal parliamentary secretary Warren Entsch called the French international vultures.

Whoa! Entsch went on to describe France as a nation that "circles around and does nothing for itself, waiting for the opportunity to go and pick the benefits of other peoples' hard work." He evidently provoked a free-wheeling beret assault:

France was also condemned in the parliament by several MPs as treacherous, duplicitous, World War II Nazi-collaborators and makers of inferior wine whose talents were restricted to cooking.

Jacques Chirac might want to reconsider his visit.

#5 Would it help if they learned how to count and use plain english? I mean, "unilateral=1", while "multilateral" means more than one, and there are, at last count, 40 odd countries in the coalition.

#6 Just that in this great coalition only a couple of nations send troops into the fight and more than a handful prefer not to be named.

#7 >only a couple of nations send troops
To many cooks spoil the pot. Just ask the French when they unilaterally sent troops to the Ivory Coast.
