Earlier Mr Rudd said among the protesters against Mr Cheney he had seen in television footage were "a bunch of violent ferals, and they should expect absolutely no sympathy from the police".

Don't tell me he got elected
As regards Cheney's remarks, it's immateriel. He's got a terrible record for prophecy, and his recollection of the past isnt too sharp either (see the Wolf Blitzer interview for more). If the terrorists want an empire, fine. The problem with this statement (and your poll) is that there isnt one group called The Terrorists. A lot of the fighting in Iraq is
between rival illegal factions. Afghanistan may be different, but aren't we always being told that Iraq is a 'central front"? Cheney should know better and quit shooting his mouth off.
