and so it begins ..

the war has started .. and the blanket coverage on tv across all stations covering it live .. bush had announced the attack .. tomohawk cruise missiles have been launched and the 3rd air strike in an hour has gone by already ... Bush says that this war may be longer than expected .. not days .. maybe weeks .. months .. hopefully not years.

Opposition Leader simon crean has legal advice saying that it was illegal to launch an attack, whereas the PM has advice sayin it is legal. Who is right? What happens if it is illegal? Is someone going to take the PM to the International Criminal Court for war crimes?! now that will be a sight if it happens ...

Why has it come to this? Bush's ploy to take control of the oil markets? He says nothing will stop til the US have victory, that is the only outcome. What is determined as victory? What if they never find Saddam? They havnt found bin Laden yet have they? or have they?

Lets just hope it wont get out of hand. We all know Saddam has weapons of mass destruction, biological and chemical. If they were to be used, who knows what will happen. Retaliation of the worst from the best.

I have nothing but respect for our forces out there, and wish them the best and come back in one piece. Not in a body bag.

Respect.
