"Tony Blair brushed aside the massive anti-war demonstrations, the Commons revolt and concessions by Saddam Hussein, and insisted yesterday that he would not be deflected from his determination to disarm Iraq."

An awful terrorist attack will happen in the UK. If it is proved that it could have been avoided by taking Saddam out, then how will the peace marchers feel then?

""When people decided not to confront fascism, they were doing the popular thing, they were doing it for good reasons, and they were good people ... but they made the wrong decision," he said."

"Officials at the Homeland Security Department said they expected that all 18,000 border inspectors who are being consolidated into the new department ÷ 9,000 customs agents, 6,000 immigration agents and 3,000 agriculture agents ÷ will be outfitted with one of the radiation devices and trained in their use by the middle of next year.

I'm a litttle confused by this article, on the one hand they're saying that they have been checking some people since 9/11 and the other that this isn't going to be water tight till summer 2004.

I really would hhave thought they'd have this sorted ages ago... And what the hell's happening at UK ports and airports? Nowt, I'd guess if the US is so far behind - we'll be even further.

By now it may even be too late.
