I'd be careful approving of LABF. He uses neo-Nazis to support his views.

For starters, Kerry might be able to convince the UN to become more involved in the rebuilding of Iraq and the establishment of its new government. This won't happen with Bush, since he's already told the UN he doesn't care what they think.

The same UN that used the Oil-for-Food program to enrich its bureaucrats (via bribes, kickbacks and the like) and allowed Saddam to continue amassing wealth for his weapons programs and to continue to slaughter the Iraqi people? The same UN that allowed Saddam to violate resolution after resolution? The same UN that did nothing to avert the Rwandan genocide of 1994? The same UN that is, at this moment, doing nothing to avert the genocide going on in Sudan? Why do you think the UN has any moral standing whatsoever?

The war on terrorism needs to be worldwide; not a unilateral US effort, imo. In this effort, having allies... and not being universally detested... might be advantageous.

What additional allies do we need? The French? The Germans? The Russians? Nor is the US universally detested.
Care to try again?
