The Bush administration faces growing challenges in holding together the
32-nation coalition deployed in Iraq, with four countries already gone,
another four due to leave by September and others now making known their
intention to wind down or depart before the political transition is complete
next year, according to officials from 28 participating countries.

And this was supposed to be the period when all nations would step up to
the challenge of bringing democracy to Iraq.

Another fallacy promoted by the Bush Administration in its strafing of
American values, diplomacy and standing in the world.

Shame on these thugs.
