ARE THERE THREE PEOPLE IN THE COUNTRY WHO KNOW THIS?

Traveling with the SECDEF (Impromptus, Jay Nordlinger, NRO, 10/22/03)

"Or take the coalition in Iraq. It now includes military forces from 32 nations. Consider some of the countries that are contributing troops in Iraq today: Albania, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, El Salvador, Estonia, Georgia, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Moldova, Mongolia, Nicaragua, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, and Ukraine. They all have forces in Iraq assisting the coalition. There are others, as well, but I just mention these because those are the nations helping in Iraq today that President Reagan helped to make free."

Just a minor quibble..

Nordlinger says that those nations are "assisting the coalition".

Aren't those nations PART of the coalition?

John -- I should have made clear that the quote is of Rumsfeld.
