    D-Day Dreamers By Torcuil Crichton, Sunday Herald, UK
    Next Sunday will be the last big commemoration to involve the veterans of the conflict as time begins its final roll call of their ranks. It will be a piquant ceremony and one loaded with irony in having President George W Bush here to pay tribute to the fallen and to commemorate the bravest and most audacious military attack of modern times. Bush, and every president since Franklin D Roosevelt, has borrowed and built on the D-day story turning it into a myth of liberation to support US military intervention across the globe. Bush comes as the most isolated American president of our times, one who, in the harsh bomb-blasted reality of Iraq, has lost his way and shattered the credibility that sustained America as a liberator and bulwark against evil in the western world for almost 40 years.
