We tend to take in what we are given with little question.

  4. Interesting -- a good "big picture" assessment of things there. I would disagree that the American defeat is a "turning point in world history," though. It's not like it hasn't happened before. We were defeated in Vietnam too.

  6. Tom...sanctions on a poor country with problems..there are times when Politics stink.
    And that it quite often theses day I surmise.

    Zhoen I will have a look.
    The problem everywhere is that we are fed one sided publicity/propaganda/information.
    When people make up their own minds it is no longer popular with politicians?
