As John Kerry continues alienating our existing allies with insults and belittling comments, Colin Powell points out that Kerry’s promise to enlist more allies is nothing but a cynical election year fantasy: Powell doubts Kerry can ‘magically’ produce more US allies on Iraq.

“I don’t want to get into the political debate, as you noted, and Senator Kerry can make these statements, but I’m not sure that he can really back them up or that suddenly support that is not there now will magically appear with a change in the presidency,” Powell told Fox News.
