i support alec.
the us should turn its attention to north korea, a country that they can actually prove has these weapons/abilities. this is an oil motivated war.
if the us were truly concerned about its long term safety in the international community it wouldn't veto the WTOs efforts at bringing affordable AIDS/HIV drugs (among others) to developing nations, it would not withdraw funding from the UN's population fund, it would not have refused to acknowledge the International Criminal Court's jurisdiction (doing so required the removal of their signature from the Vienna Convention of 1968 as to the policy of treaties and signatories), (these examples all pertain to the last year) they would not act against the international community. among many other things, not to mention their us v.s. them rhetoric which is sure to get them far....

yeah malek i have no idea what he's referring to when it comes to the ICC, if the US wont' recognize it out of fears of constraining their international efforts ~ for whatever reasons ~ some say it would have constrain them in acting in cases like somalia...anywayz you can't try someone in a court your don't recognize, and have removed your signature even from the papers giving the intention to create such a body, i don't believe there's another institution capable of handling these cases. (i won't even begin on how you can put someone on trial who's position in their society is part of their body of national defense, they are legitimate as a member of their national army, acting under domestic orders....)
I really have no idea what Bush thinks he's doing with that, but I mean for only one thing in a Bush speech to befuddle me, he's getting better.
yeah the oil fields were a real hoot and a hollar. but i must admit, his speech was definately aimed at a higher browed international audience as opposed to his terrible press conference last week.
