Question

If that doesn't rally more solid support for the US anti-terrorist coalition (even Saudi permission for large troop bases, no matter how delicate the domestic politics with Pakistani etc...workers?), then what will? Attacks on London, Riyadh, Paris, or Moscow? Did the countries near Kuwait want many more oilfields to have been captured by Saddam's troops? To those who consider that sacred Saudi land was "dirtied" by foreign troops, guess which coalition liberated the area?

Of course Damascus (Syria), Tehran and Tripoli are safe. It is strange how little our US media over the years seem to report on Syria, considering what has been traced back to that government...has anyone else noticed this?
