BB,

Don't confuse Bobert, for all his arguements he relies on the "BOBERT FACT" which requires no form of substantiation.

Bobert also wants to look at the combat statistics:

"Desert Storm" was by far the more destructive with around 130,000 killed that included all Iraqi military fatalities.

The Invasion of March 2003 and operations to May resulted in about one tenth the civilian fatalities of "Desert Storm". Very few infrastructure targets were hit in 2003 compared to "Desert Storm" and there was a very good reason for that.

I am interested to see that dianavan appears to believe that the middle-east region has to be controlled by some other country, because if not it can only result in turmoil. By the bye, dianavan the middle-east is not "the Muslim world", not by a long shot. The answers to your questions dianavan are contained and explained in my first post to this thread, all you've got to do is read it, I did after all write it at your specific request.

Ake, the protest vote in Scotland was directed against Jack McConell and the Scottish Labour party, nothing to do with Tony Blair.
