Well said. I fully agree, if we are at an increased risk now then it is purely because we have supported Bush's crusade to impose his view of democracy on the rest of the world. Leaving aside the issue of Iraq, Bush has now demanded that *all* middle-eastern states adopt a fully democractic government, with the implication that if they don`t then they better watch out. Is it any wonder that the US is so vilified by so many people around the world, and if we continue to be their poodle then we too will be dragged into the whole sorry mess.
