If the Free World and the Arab world is ever going to find common ground, we, the Free World, must show them that we care about them not only for their oil, but also for their well being (That is, if we truly feel that way). This kind of 'Oil for Food' criminal activity has to stop.

I am hoping that rebuilding Iraq into a democracy will help bridge this gap between the Free World and the Middle East. Perhaps if the people of the Middle East see a free and prosperous Iraq, they will want the same. I just hope it doesnâ€™t take too long.
