"SAN SALVADOR -- President Bush has asked his Salvadoran counterpart, Tony Saca, to keep this country's forces in Iraq after soldiers stationed there come home in a few weeks. Saca said Bush made the request in a phone call Wednesday.

Saca said Sunday that while he supports sending a new wave of troops, he's not yet ready to make a decision.

El Salvador, with 380 troops now in Iraq, is the only Western Hemisphere country with soldiers still aiding the United States in Iraq. Honduras, Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic withdrew their troops.

Six Salvadoran soldiers helped fight off an ambush March 5 and were credited with saving the lives of six Coalition Provisional Authority personnel. The United States awarded them with the Bronze Star."

1. So, what will ARENA get in exchange for those lives?

The Bronze star having no powers of resurrection.

2. Sounds suspiciously like the blivet is losing his

core of countries who are 'on board'. And what about Poland?
