Rumsfeld poked a stick once again into the den of one of the members of the Axis of Weasel:

"And then there are three or four countries that have said they won't do anything. I believe Libya, Cuba and Germany are the ones that I have indicated won't help in any respect," Rumsfeld told the House Armed Services Committee.

I didn't see him say it. Did he laugh when he did? So, the US is (absurdly) being accused of having economic reasons in going to war, but the argument can so easily be reversed and shined back on the war's biggest critics - France, Russia, China, Germany among others. It's also nice to see that it's not the US, but actually Germany who's in danger of being isolated diplomatically as well. Always interesting to see how these things shake out...
