I agree that Powell would do nothing different save in one respect. He would be more internationally orientated. He would have a broader coalition and many muslim nations would be physically helping. Rather now muslim countries say yes to Bush and behind his back pray that he fails or for another attack.

Powell also strikes me as a rather stronger character than Bush, but that is just how I see it, Bush has recently proven he has more brains than we assumed but I still think Powell would be more personally influential.

Didn't HLD say that Powell wasn't a possibility because he doesn't want his family to go through the stress?

Sorry for my last statement. I had no time and didn't have time to explain. War monger are perhaps not the words, but he is to loose with his use of military might. Afghanistan had to happen. I'm antiviolence at all, but at the same time I'm realistic and America had to do something about Afghanistan. Now for Iraq, I don't think the case is attacking outright. You send an ultimatum with the UN's support saying that they allow inspectors in by a certain date and if they don't you have to attack. If they won't let them back then I think they must be hiding someone. Right now they're making demands because they are trying to get what they can. I think if it came down to it they would let the inspectors back in. Bush talks about attacking with or without the UN and that's not right. He's still shown no evidence that Iraq has weapons of mass destruction. IMHO some other countries are much more dangerous than Iraq. Also, I've said that Powell should be President since Bush was elected. It's my understanding that he wants to handle the situation as I stated. Bush just wanted to attack. I'm sorry but I don't like Bush. He handled Afghanistan the only way it could be handled and he did it fairly well, but now he's doing much worse.
