My apologies - this was meant for another newsgroup.

That's OK. If you're going to revere the opinions of a "former
Australian Army officer", I'm available for consultation. ;-)

As long as you agree that the invasion of Iraq was f*cking stupid. ;-)

And, like Hitler's it had a lot of little helpers,

"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and
more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious
day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last
and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."
- Mencken

I love Mencken quotes. I think the one that I drew for this random sig is
a counter-example to his sagacity.

I think, with Iraq, we have double trouble because:
1) The invasion was stupid.
2) The invaders were stupid.
