                    [Summary] => The first global casualty in the Iraq war is air travel. International Air Line companies are expecting a loss of $10 billion.

In short, the Iraq war will further aggravate the current economic recession. The backlash on third world countries will be very bad.


In war truth is no longer an issue. For wars do not determine who was right and who was wrong. The reason only shows who was the stronger. Admittedly, some wars are inevitable and justified.

The word ultimatum comes from the word ultimate and means the time when rejection will end peaceful negotiations and cause a resort to force or other drastic actions.
