Ok, I will step in now. I think that it is great news the Saddam has been captured. I personally thought he would have put up a fight, maybe with a couple of armed guards with him too, but he didn't. I just think he looks tired and worn out... I think he knows how messed up he is, and now justice will be served.

Canada is contributing with the effort in Iraq. We are not proving men or equipment for two reasons: The war on Iraq is not a UN approved war, and we simply do not have the troops to send. We have many of our troops in Afghanistan and other parts around the world keeping peace. I feel that now that Martin is Prime Minister, and Saddam has been captured, we will send in a 1-3 thousand soldiers in the next 3-6 months to help keep the streets of Iraq safe.

Does Canada deserve contracts to rebuild Iraq? Yes and no. Canada has been contributing money to the war effort, just not men. If I were in America's shoes, I wouldn't let some country who didn't back me publicly in on the money that will be made.


And gekko, when did you get back? Welcome home man. How did boot camp go? Good to have you back man.
