Don, what I am saying is we aren't hearing from the Iraqi people (those living in exile, or in Iraq) themselves, in either the mainstream or alternative media. That means we are missing a crucial link in the debate, because we have no idea what the debates are over the best way to proceed regarding the current murderous regime of the Ba'ath party.

Not trying to start a war here. Just saying, it would be helpful to have Iraqis involved in the debate about what can realistically be achieved, and how it will happen in their country.

One thing we do all agree on though. The US attacking Iraq is NOT going to help the Iraqis.
