Iraq is suspected of having smallpox pathogens given to them by a Russian scientist during the 1980's. Would any of you in Europe really want this to get into the wrong hands, as a "dirty" bomb is very easy to build. The western democracies have the power to remove this danger before harm can come to not only the USA, Isreal or Great Britain, but any freedom loving democracy of the world. I am proud Great Britain is standing shoulder to shoulder in their hour of need, as America eventually did during WW2. France and Germany, who have experienced first hand the lack of dealing with a problem immediately as it arises (Hitler) should be aware as much as anyone the need to attack Iraq and in the coming few weeks. US, UK, Isreal, Spain, Bulgaria and Australia, are we the only freedom loving democracies in the world?
