aaaah, voltaire, but isnt a man who realises the truth and speaks out a better man than one who doesnt even take his blinkers off to go to bed? I'd love to get hold of Colin Powell's book and read it. there was a man........a true soldier, who obviously didnt relish the untruths he was forced to tell......... But on nukes..........they are hideous weapons, and for the US to have even considered using them in a pre-emptive strike on Iran, makes them no better than the terrorists they tag as such for their political agenda.
