Angie,
you said..."And our OWN friend, too. The one we had been buddy buddy with when we worked together against Iran. The one Rumsfeld if often seen with in the "hand-shaking all-smiles" photo. "
There are many photo's of Neville Chamberlain shaking hands with Hitler,when they agreed to let Hitler have Czechoslovakia.
We also have picdtures of diplomats from all the allied countries shaking hands with Hitler,during the Berlin olympics.
Does that mean that all those countries were in collusion with Hitler then?
You apparently know very little about diplomacy.
There are times when you have to be civil with a person that you normally wouldnt allow in your house.
You also said this..."After we told them we were going in anyway. You see, they and many other nations, did not believe Bush's lie re WMDs, and what do you know, they were right. "
If this were true,then why was there a UNANIMOUS resolution from the UN,giving Saddam one last chance to disarm and come clean?
I suggest you read this...

This is resolution 1441,and it was UNANIMOUS.EVERY country in the Security council still believed that Iraq had WMD,so your claim that many nations didnt believe Bush is just plain wrong.
REad the resolutions before you say something stupid like that,ok.
It will save you looking foolish in the future.
