	union - definition by dict.die.net
		Note: Union differs from connection, as it implies that the bodies are in contact, without an inter?ening body; whereas things may be connected by the in???vention of a third body, as by a cord or chain.
		A device emblematic of union, used on a national flag or ensign, sometimes, as in the military standard of Great Britain, covering the whole field; sometimes, as in the flag of the United States, and the English naval and marine flag, occupying the upper inner corner, the rest of the flag being called the fly.
		Note: The union of the United States ensign is a cluster of white stars, denoting the union of the States, and, properly, equal in number to that of the States, displayed on a blue field; the fly being composed of alternate stripes of red and white.

	Political Bull - Political Essays about the world we inhabit
		The primary driver for the creation of the coalition is the American government, which needs the appearance of international participation to cover up the fact that neither the United Nations nor a huge majority of the world’s population support the war or occupation.
		The façade of a coalition was designed to placate American public opinion and continues to be shoveled out the public in order to imply that the Iraqi adventure is an international cooperative effort.
		Tony Blair is also one of the few liberal/labor party leaders among the coalition “partners” and he was in the unique position of having a solid parliamentary majority and a Conservative Opposition that also supported the war.

	Political Participation and the Union Member by Steven J (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Union members have only to look at the last presidential election to see just how much a small number of votes can be worth as well as the cost being paid today by working families who decided not to participate on November 7
		Today we have a coalition of largely second and third-rate nations, most of which have made manpower commitments of a few hundred troops, nations many of which are themselves recipients of U.S. foreign aid dollars and thus in no position to provide serious financial support for military operations or reconstruction efforts.
		When you listen to business leaders, political conservatives and the far right press they constantly claim that unions are "out of touch with the American worker" and as such are obsolete and irrelevant in modern society.

		After a taste of victory in the last national elections, union leaders are hungry for the chance to elect a pro-labor president.
