In the last war we had a coalition of nations who actually sent troops and who helped pay the huge cost of the war. last time Japan, Germany and several arab states wrote big checks to help out. This time not one other country has offerd to hepl pey the nut. It's all U.S. taxpayer this time.
Here's what one expert had to say

"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a
democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY
COUNTRY."


No, karl rove didn't say this, nor did don rumsfeld nor dubya though
they might have. These are the words of another fine leader, Herrman Goëring
