<OT> We won't back down...

Could the facts that reconstruction to the tune of hundreds of billions
of dollars, to be paid for with Iraqi oil money, with bids only being
taken from USA companies and those at the front of the line being those
well connected to the current administration, all of which will be under
the direction (over there) of a US general for at least two years be
contributing to some uncertainty over the holiness of this crusade?

What scares me as much as anything about this is the intolerance of
dissenting views.  Canada has backed the US in so many ways at so many
times (remember the Iran hostages?) yet this one time Canada has a
different stand (OK, but with UN sanction) and suddenly we're
villians!?  Canadians are being refused service by US businesses!?

Sept 11 was an attack on the West, not just on the USA.  More Canadians
were killed Sept 11 than were killed by American bombs in Afghanistan.

With friends like this... :-(

Well.  I feel a little better.
