Armageddon

Seems like the decision has already been made:

"You are not going to decide whether there is war in Iraq or not," the diplomat said U.S. officials told him. "That decision is ours, and we have already made it. It is already final. The only question now is whether the council will go along with it or not."

I can hardly say i'm surprised. The look of frustration on monkey-boy's face recently, as he has realized that the people have seen the game for what it is (an imperialist land-grab), has been rather transparent. Like a dull, stupid, child who knows that it will lose but has to carry on playing...

What's amazing about the quote above (apart from the obvious) is that it's from the Washington Post. If it was some "crackpot" outfit like The Nation it would be easier to dismiss, but the Washington Post. Nah.

I suppose the question now becomes, how will the people react?
