I see Megan has already answered you, but I must just point out that "Exactamundo" is probably the more accepted spelling ;) "The folly of man is that he dreams of what he can never achieve rather than dream of what he can." "If you think education is expensive, try ignorance."

But I'm sure the term Coalition is being misused here, and it appears to be an attempt to put a unified face on the matter. It certainly sounds nicer than "Imperialist Invaders," though the term "Coalition" seems a bit optimistic. It's possible that the US government coined the term, but it's more likely that CNN invented it. It's much better than the term "embedded," though. I'm tired of hearing about embedded reporters. That must be a lousy job, like having a career as a suppository. Ancient man conquered his rivals with the jawbone of an ass; modern man uses the jawbone of a politician.

A 500 KT submarine launched warhead would do the trick also - and only cost about 2 mill or so. Taxpayers would really get "more bang" for their buck that way. A lot of coalation lives would be spared also.

In Switzerland, they had brotherly love; they had five hundred years of democracy and peace and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock. Orson Welles

I wish they would have done that. Put a billion dollar price tag on his head. However, he is not in it alone in Iraq. He does have many folowers that keep his own people from revolting.

Actually, I think they tried that (Operation Decapitation), only they used the amateur assasins in the CIA and DOD, probably since they were already on the payroll... As with programmers, with assasins you get the quality you are willing to pay for, it would seem. Should've "outsourced" it. :rolleyes: Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped. - Elbert Hubbard
