Bitter-sweet April Foolers spin surreal tales of Iraq war The unsuspecting could have been tricked into thinking the US-led war in Iraq had taken a sudden surreal twist, as newspapers around the world spun bitter-sweet April Fool's reports about the conflict.
Yeah and they think Jacques Tati and Jerry Lewis are funny too.
However this story is not an April Fools joke: In talks with Powell, EU will insist on "central" role for U.N. in postwar Iraq. European Union officials plan to tell U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell when they meet Thursday that the United Nations must play the central role in rebuilding postwar Iraq.
EU spokeswoman Emma Udwin said Tuesday that senior diplomats from the 15-nation union would stress that it was their "primary concern to have the U.N. center stage."
Should George Bush allow the EU via the UN to profit from their cowardice, approval and support of Americans (voters) will evaporate faster than a suitcase of cash at the UN.
They were called "CarpetBaggers" in the Civil War!
