What we need to ask those who object to military action so loudly, is "What is the solution?" Watching CNN when I am supposed to be writing a paper, I just watched it reported that both France and Russia are requesting, no, demanding a peaceful solution. Ok... what IS that solution? There is nothing specific behind those statements and it has been the same frell that I have been hearing for some months now. Also - the objectors - are they truly objecting for the reason of peace, or because they perhaps, just perhaps have a stake of sorts already tied up in that locale?

I still say the US/UK/AUS and any other units pull out of the Gulf now and let France, Russia and any other objectors handle this situation in Iraq; obviously we are not performing to par, so let's move out of the way and let those other ideas happen. The US needs to refocus on our own issues and the 'War on Terrorism.'

We should be focusing on our own economy and people. I am tired of seeing our flag burned in other countries becuase we have not handled situations to those people's liking. Is that an answer? Or would our flag be burned more often? Again - what is the right specific answer that would satisfy at least most of the world?
