I suspect Mr David Pye is living in the past, still hankering for Britain's
long lost colonies, but he should harbour no such hope about Iraq (Churchill
tried that in the 1920's but had to give up despite gassing the Shiites in
the South and putting hapless Indian troops on the ground for "policing on
the cheap" who were killed by their hundreds - a bit of history for you
Debian aficionados in the English list).
