I think behind the scenes there is tremendous support in the area. It looks like the only real cowards are the euroweenies, but that's OK, they can sit on the sidelines and watch the rest of the world pass them by after its all over. I can just hear the whining and hand wringing now "but we were ALWAYS on your side"
We'll let them absolve themselves, by paying a hefty portion of the tab. If they try to weasel out of this, we should be able to put the screws on them somehow. For instance, while we (in the U.S.) ride our corporations pretty hard about not getting involved in overseas corruption, most of the European nations are not so scrupulous. We might pressure the new Iraqi government to investigate past corporate corruption, and institute a five year moratorium prohibiting companies that paid bribes in the past from bidding on contracts under the new government. That would put the fear of God and George W into 'em.
