..as EU members? The EU has its own (token) military force,
but I am not aware of any Swedish troops in Afghanistan.

..peace. First we need to hang all our war criminals, then they have
to hang theirs, all under the strictest combination of Sharia, the full
4 Geneva Conventions, the US War Crimes Act, the Norw. Military
penal code etc.
Or, you will have to _forgive_ Osama for felling the WTC. ;o)
Thenafter we can make peace last by moving the Jews out of the
Middle East to whereever they please to go, or watch Hezbollah 'n
Hamas mow 'em.
..the root cause of this war is not that "the Jews got a home land",
but that we (the UN) stole it from the Filistinians and renamed it
to "Palestine" and let Hitler gas the Jews to scare them "home", to
piiage Arab oil and stall Muslim Capitalism.
..we need to fix that, _if_ we want peace. If we don't, there is
absolutely _no_ way you can convince me, "the Muslims does
not need nukes."

Scenarios always come in sets of three:
best case, worst case, and just in case.
