I hope You are right, but I fear you are wrong.
In a hundred Years Saddam and the Iraq war will only be a footnote in history.
I am afraid 2003 will be remembered as the year USA, as the worlds only superpower, stept aside from the path of unity and cooperation, and decided they was better off alone. But I hope I am wrong.
I am afraid 2003 will be remembered as the year when the new frontlines was drawn, when the new cold war started. Not between East and West, but between USA (and a few close friends) and the rest of the world. But I hope I am wrong.
The damage done to USA's international relations by singlehandedly take matters in their own hand, will take years and years of carefull diplomacy too undo. I hope GWB is wise enough to do it. But I fear he is not.
