Meanwhile the oldest voice in the US Congress rose on Wednesday to denounce as misguided the President Bush's march to war with Iraq.
"Today I weep for my country," said West Virginia Democrat Senator Robert Byrd.
"No more is the image of America one of strong, yet benevolent peacekeeper. Around the globe, our friends mistrust us, our word is disputed, our intentions are questioned," he said.
"We flaunt our superpower status with arrogance," Mr Byrd said, adding: "After war has ended the US will have to rebuild much more than the country of Iraq. We will have to rebuild America's image around the globe."
