Perhaps it is the sensitivity felt by many artists that make us all a little unsure of which path to take. This is also why I think we can air our views here most times and for it not to get taken to extremes, unlike some forums I could mention. We all agree that Saddam must go, that the Iraqi people should have freedom from tyrany and that as few lives as possible are lost. How we get to these ends may not sit comfortably with many of us but since we are here at this point in the war I think we should all hope for a swift peace and conclusion with as little bloodshed as possible. I consider people here to be my friends and although we may disagree on the why's and wherefore's we do all want what is best for the world, what is right and just. I've enjoyed this little debate for the passion it has evoked in everyone who has written here and it would be very nice if governments around the world could sit around and discuss matters this way and reach peaceful solutions to problems. Just my thoughts and best wishes to all. Catlin
