you can see quite alot of responses if you simply look at messageboards set up by various newspapers: the guardian has one going as does the washington post.

what i have been seeing is a very different type of response from 2001--here, many many folk are laying the whole thing on tony blair and bush, in the lap of their absurd "war on terror" and---in particular---the misbegotten colonial adventure in iraq.

i assume that american tv networks will be working hard to prevent that kind of response from taking too much shape publicly. it'd be hard to maintain what remains of the support for bushworld if folk were able to stray and think in more complex terms about what this action entails. i am sure that the bushsquad is going to milk this for all its worth.

but have a look for yourself. here for example:
