Strike on Iraq

I'm confused. In the last IRAQ war, there were over 30 countries that offered supporting troops. This time there are two.
It's pretty obvious to the rest of the world that the coalition of the willing is a fantasy, and that there are more (the world -2) countries than France that think a US war on Iraq is a farse.
You don't honestly believe that if you remove Saddam there wont be any more of the so called 'evil doers' to take his place? You can't be so naive to think that killing peoples fathers, brothers and mothers will actually induce a population that smiles wholeheartedly in the fact of America?
"Of course, there's no mention of PostgreSQL or mSQL, but I guess that's typical."
The article is about an open source product posing a threat to bigwigs. Is it typical that mSQL and Postgress are not mentioned because they do not (yet anyway) pose any meaningful threat to the bigwigs. Like it or not, MySQL has far more supporters and users than either mMSQL or Postgres.
"3,000 people getting killed in the WTC and the Pentagon getting attacked probably has greater relevance for the average American than even 3,000,000 people dieing to famine"
And you wonder why the rest of the world can't stand Americans.
"I do believe that this is not just an American tragedy, it is one that affects mankind"
Agreed it's tragic, but it's not going to change the world -- and I think it's a tad self centered to make the statement that mankind itself will change because of an aviation disaster over texas.

If you cannot find Osama, bomb Iraq.
If the markets are a drama, bomb Iraq.
If the terrorists are frisky,
Pakistan is looking shifty,
North Korea is too risky,
Bomb Iraq.
If we have no allies with us, bomb Iraq.
If we think someone has dissed us, bomb Iraq.
So to hell with the inspections,
Let's look tough for the elections,
Close your mind and take directions,
Bomb Iraq.
It's "pre-emptive non-aggression", bomb Iraq.
Let's prevent this mass destruction, bomb Iraq.
They've got weapons we can't see,
And that's good enough for me
'Cos it's all the proof I need
Bomb Iraq.
If you never were elected, bomb Iraq.
If your mood is quite dejected, bomb Iraq.
If you think Saddam's gone mad,
With the weapons that he had,
(And he tried to kill your dad),
Bomb Iraq.
If your corporate fraud is growin', bomb Iraq.
If your ties to it are showin', bomb Iraq.
If your politics are sleazy,
And hiding that ain't easy,
And your manhood's getting queasy,
Bomb Iraq.
Fall in line and follow orders, bomb Iraq.
For our might knows not our borders, bomb Iraq.
Disagree? We'll call it treason,
Let's make war not love this season,
Even if we have no reason,
Bomb Iraq.

"Saddam should have been taken out in 1991"
You don't honestly believe that if you remove Saddam there wont be any more of the so called 'evil doers' to take his place? You can't be so naive to think that killing peoples fathers, brothers and mothers will actually induce a population that smiles wholeheartedly in the fact of America?
"This should have happened 10 years ago."
Uhhhh.... it did. And, well that seemed to solve a lot didn't it?
"Several sources report that a serious new Microsoft vulnerability has been found."
Maybe this is there version of "open source".

"Shoot. How the hell do we all get to Canada and back when half of all Perl developer population are on green cards."
No worries. That's just the ones who continuously misspent their names on their resumes.

Fault has nothing to do with relevance.
