So yesterday or Thursday Rummy goes to Bangladesh to beg
for the country to join the coalition and send troops to Iraq.

Your take on this?

1. I dunno, salin... sounds like exploitation
go to one of the poorest nations in the world ... probably offer bribes of foreign aid... while trying to build an "alternative coalition" to the UN, since the neocons don't want to give up as much control as the UN Security council appears to want in return for direct involvement...

Is he so stupid to think that it will work now, when it didn't a year and a half ago (garnering enough support from small, impoverished nations, to make the appearance of a "coalition"...)
