Well, they started it alright. The war on Iraq has begun. I just pray this'll be over real soon. With the war still in the early stages, no one can say how many people will be displaced. The buzz word being used in the international and diplomatic community is "humanitarian crisis". A crisis it will be. Imagine hundreds of thousands of refugees huddled in refugee camps inside and outside Iraq, with no provisions for food and medicine. And with the war on, humanitarian aid and supplies will be scarce or at best delayed. The UN recognizes it must move to help refugees. The European Union has already decided to help with 20 million Euros in immediate aid. That goes to show you that when the US goes war-mongering, everybody else will have to help the victims of the conflict.

Oh, and just amuse you, I found out they're sending Optimus Prime to Iraq. That'll ensure the definitive victory that George W wants. LOL
