East Iran and North Pakistan.

I don't disagree with your analysis. I hope that causes you angst.

It does give you pause doesn't it.


I think it is encouraging that we are actually having a civilized
conversation and actually agreeing on something ;-)



Someone please explain to me in polite terms how the leaders of two
administrations, the current one and the one in the immediate past,
hoodwinked themselves into believing anything worth saving could be made
from either Iraq or Afghanistan.

I understand what Bush I did with his war with Iraq. It was rational. I
understand what Clinton did in Bosnia. That was rational.

Iraq? Afghanistan? Huh?

A view that people are generally good and that they will do the right
thing if given the opportunity.

If you do not have a positive outlook and faith in the good of mankind
then you might as well go live in a cave.

I agree. I had a good view of Bush until he was proven to be a liar.
