  1. You could change name on the cruiser in the Baltic from "Pkt BBs" to Admiral Scheer, or why not give the cruisers Prince Eugen, Blucher or the fabolous Admiral Hipper an own unit?

    Well maybe we should try this. One thing that concerns me though is that the russian war percentage is set to 0. That may tip the balance. Otherwise it looks really good.

  2. JerseyJohn, as always a well balanced and insightful post.

    Yep Saddam should have been removed in 1991, no one would have protested if the US had influenced UN to go all the way. The iraqi army was in complete disarray after being crushed at the border. Now we will have a war where Saddam has learned his lesson will put his troops in the cities instead. It will be a bloodbath.

    I critizise USA for a lot of things. However Im not anti-american, I think your country is really great and done so much good but this conflict must be solved within the UN authority. Otherwise we will have total anarchy in international politics, and that will not the west benefit from. So lets give the weapon-inspectors some more time.

  3. JerseyJohn, the world dont protest to protect Saddam Hussein but against the cruelty of war. I was one of 5-10 million demonstratin on saturday to show my support for peaceful ways to solve this conflict. Collin Powells evidence have not succeeded in convincing nor the security counsil as well as Germany and France about how important a war is.

    There are two reasons to let the weapon-inspectors get more time;

    1. A war would mean that millions of the iraqi-population would die. During the gulf-war 1991 USA launched 10 cruisingmissiles for the first 40 days. Now Bush plan to launch 800(!) in the first 2 days and let me tell you, there is no such thing as "smart weapons". Some of my friends here in Sweden have seen the devastation on children last time bombs fell on iraq. It´s horryfing stories they tell, how children dies in tornment by exploding bombs containing little plastic pieces carvin up all of their bodies. This is what war is, the civilians will take the mainblow.

    2. If attackin-wars are allowed the whole fundation which the UN stands on is destroyed. All international politics are baased on the fact that all countries can defend themself but not be aggressive against others. And quite frankly, the evidence presented by Powell hasnt been to convincing.

    So with all due respect, lets increase the number of weapon-inspectors and give this some time before goin to war.
