This public was willing to try, and they have seen a great effort attempted. Yet nothing enrages or demoralizes them more than seeing an Iraqi girl stoned to death by her neighbors and relatives after she dated the wrong boy. The air goes whistling out of their hope faster than with a truck bomb at a pilgrimage or mutilated American soldiers. <BR/>When all possible respect evaporates, they will be ready once again for War By Other Means. That became unfashionable by the time of Jimmy Carter's era of Iran and Nicaraqua, and other Quisling experiments. I expect it will become quite fashionable again. There will be litle pity for the innocent, if we can't find any now.xlbrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01931950075332608449noreply@blogger.com
