The editing system isn't very consistent as far as I can tell... I seem to be able to get away with most first edits without a little message for it......
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

maybe less then,
4:00am Baghdad time is 7:00pm central (8:00pm eastern)
looks like that would be a good time to start, tacticly speaking.

This is quite odd. When was the last time that the world KNEW when the next big war was going to start to the specific hour? To the specific day even? Perhaps counterstrikes and reinforcement placements, but never like "in 36 hours a war will begin". Thats quite profound in my oppinion. But so is war. And so are Freedom Fries...

The UN has failed us once again.
If you have been watching the news you will know that war is now inevitable, as diplomacy has failed. Once again. It's like te League of Nations all over again.

When war is declared, there will be much unrest, believe me.

I'm going to get myself some robes.

Anyway. This will be like Vietnam again, I think. It will go on for bloody ages, and have no real winner.

They won't be able to introduce conscription (in the UK at least) because no-one will go.

I'm now convinced that the buttheads leading US have finally, officially gone nuts.

There are so many things that are wrong with them that I would need the whole day to write this post, so I'll just say this again, they're nuts, stupid and arrogant, and I hope they all choke to their prezels.

No smilies, I'm pissed.

I quite agree with you, Pera. Not all of the US, though, just Dubya and his cronies.
