Approval?
Tom Brosz — (archived)

de Villepin isn't proposing someting new other than in international force to hunt terrorists throughout the world.

It has to be approved by the countries where it can act.

Oh, yeah, that's going to work.

Let's see you get the approval of the old Taliban government of Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, North Korea, pre-war Pakistan, Iran, or any of the others.

By definition, any government harboring or tolerating terrorists is going to be uncooperative.

We already are having a lot of success in hunting terrorists in cooperative nations in Europe and others. That's a part of the war on terror, but that's not where the main problem is right now.

I'm continously amazed by a philosophy that seems to believe that military action is only acceptable if you don't make anyone mad.
