In my world, Guardian types aren't right-wingers. Maybe in some other worlds. Ok, right social democrats perhaps. But if the modal Guardian reader is right-wing, then what is the modal Telegraph reader?

Didn't Rogers say early in the Gulf War that the Iraqis would present a mighty resistance?
I think there's a good possibility NATO could "win" just by pounding the hell out of Serbia for weeks on end and completely destroying the country. Even if it's a largely rural population, the loss of city markets and services could cause rural life to unravel along with urban.
