[forintegrity]

her confirmation hearing this morning? I thought everyone but the US has pretty much packed up and gone home (or are planning to pull out soon).

Another half-truth (AKA as a LIE) from between her teeth?

Coalition Members

countries--from March, 2003. I know that is now what you asked-but still interesting.



Who are the current coalition members?

President Bush is assembling a Coalition that has already begun military operations to disarm Iraq of its weapons of mass destruction, and enforce 17 UNSC resolutions.

The Coalition will also liberate the Iraqi people from one of the worst tyrants and most brutal regimes on earth.

Contributions from Coalition member nations range from: direct military participation, logistical and intelligence support, specialized chemical/biological response teams, over-flight rights, humanitarian and reconstruction aid, to political support.

Forty-eight countries are publicly committed to the Coalition, including:....

7. Maybe she is referring to *'s Evangelical base?

[Wolfetone]

8. Technically it is a coalition, although a rather lopsided one.

The size and capabilities of the Coalition forces involved in operations in Iraq has been a subject of much debate, confusion, and at times exageration. As of December 24, 2004, there were 27 non-U.S. military forces participating in the coalition and contributing to the ongoing stability operations throughout Iraq. These countries were Albania, Australia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, El Salvador, Estonia, Georgia, Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, South Korea, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Moldova, Mongolia, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, United Kingdom, Ukraine, and the Kingdom of Tonga.
