Old Goy:

Apparently yopu have not read this entire thread or you would have read my posts on the Saudi Plan (Mitchell Plan) that Bush couldn't be *bothered* with that created a framework for a negotiated Middle East peace.

Plus, I'll guarentee ya. that if you give me 20% of the war budget, a team of religious leaders, psychologists, advertising folk and men of peace that we'd have this thing straighted out in no time with no or very little loss of life.

The problem is that we wouldn't get to blow up a lot of stuff that will need to be replaced by the arms contrators and we will have to buy Iraq's oil rather than steal it.

And ya might want to go back and review my "Department of Peace" thread...
