48. In this context "US" is shorthand for "the west"
Edited on Sat Dec-30-06 09:49 AM by rman
because even though other wealthy nations do play a role, the US is clearly the front-runner.
Which certainly does not exonerate those other nations. But the fact that they aren't always mentioned does not exonerate the US.

Besides, it was an American who shook Saddam's hand on the deal.
