I have to first make a couple minor changes to the gallery builder, but once I've done that and confirmed it works, I'll try and do an experience update, at least partially… I should really focus on re-writing the image adder tool as well so I can get others to help me with it…

The UN so far finds no prohibited weapons in Iraq, but the US continues to use the lack of weapons as “proof that Saddam is hiding them” and the UN predicts that the US will murder as many as 500,000 Iraqis over a little oil and a lot of imperialism.

Further around the globe, North Korea tells the US that if it messes with it in any way, it'll start a war on the penninsula. Because North Korea actually has the defenses that Iraq is claimed to have, the US agrees to talk.

Now here's the problem. Two clear messages are sent out to the world. First, America is a nation of cowards and liars that only attacks weaker countries under false pretense (let me be clear: I'm not saying the US people are bad, just that's the message that Bush is sending the world). Second, the only way to defend oneself against imperialist invasion is by escalating your weapons program. Good going Bush — you've demonized the American people, destroyed any positive reputation the US had left, and have dramatically increased the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.

Wow Shannon, that's really annoying! What is it, 1997 on Geocities? Retroweb is NOT cool!
