We can't go back to the Cuban missile crisis. Sorry to say, that's in the past. Given those circumstances, it seemed plenty insane to me, but I was just a little kid at the time. We are confronted with the "blunders" that have lead to the "now". Regarding current events, there is no question that ALL people that inhabit this planet would not like to see their families die. Included would be the people of the USA, Israel, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran, Venezuela, Dafur... You get the point ...I could list so many. That's part of being "human". In the "now", a very "insane" condition presents itself. If you believe that a world player like China won't provide nuclear technology to Iran in exchange for petroleum futures, you might not have been attending to where Katosha (sp) rockets came from, or silk worm missiles during Vietnam, for that matter. In my humble view, "brinksmanship", though played in the past, is nothing compared to today's decisions. Based on GWB's previous ones, I lack confidence in his current ones. Fools exist on both sides of this problem. |
