Actually, President Bush has explicitly kept the "nuclear option" on the table -- particularly, their tactical use. Jon

Forward staging >bases are pretty useful. Europeans are already beginning to work out the details of a European, as opposed to individual country, military with soldiers who swear allegiance to the united countries and not the country they come from. Yes? With the US behaving the way it is, I'd wonder if the Europeans would bite at the chance to field an independent force sufficiently funded to balance US behavior and provide the necessary 'encouragements' so the US negotiates no longer as an unopposed bully.

I have a hard time, too, so here is a page that paints one of the extreme but important influences: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/10/12/105122/66 In the latter part of it you will see how "thinking" is blocked and dismantled.
