I'm sorry, but I have to agree with Mordenheim. Since WWI the Uk has always been our closest Allie! I'm not sure where you get the strained relationship from. The only thing I can really think of was maybe in the 1950's, seems like we had a little disagreement over Israel with the UK, but that's it. The last three PM's of Britain, Thatcher, Major and Blair have been great friends to the US.

I do have to agree with you that it seems like Blair has really hurt his chances to get re-elected, but depending on how the war goes, that may not be a problem either.

edit: BTW, it's my understanding that Blair has always had a hard-on for Saddam. That may also explain why he is going to war at our side.

God Bless Tony Blair, the British Army and the English people too! My hat is off to you all!!!
