National Security Advisor Condoleeza Rice has an editorial in this morning's Wall Street Journal. In it, she notes that the coalition against Saddam Hussein now consists of 50 nations. She notes that all 50 "have the will to face the gravest threat of our time--the nexus between outlaw regimes, weapons of mass destruction, and terrorism."

In one of the more moving parts of the piece, she mentions that "...some have only recently emerged from tyrannies imposed in no small part because of that failure. Months ago, the prime minister of Estonia told President Bush that he did not need an explanation of the need to confront Iraq. Because the great democracies failed to act in 1930s, his people lived in slavery for 50 years."

She also notes for special praise the assistance being given by Polish, Danish, Czech, and Slovak forces, as well as the work being done by the Australians.
