I am paraphrasing if not quoting Tom Ricks about digging the hole. So you think he's trite, that's your problem. I don't think he's worried about it. And Paul, our military failures and the Israeli struggle have proven that we NEED cooperation instead of war for OUR survival. We HAVE to mend fences with Iran and the rest of them so they can keep the radicals down instead of making things worse. If for no other reason than because they'll shut off the oil and then what? What will you fuel those already useless F16's with, not to mention your car and house. > [Original Message] > From: Paul Stone <pas@xxxxxxxx> > To: <lit-ideas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: 8/10/2006 2:21:28 PM > Subject: [lit-ideas] Re: A serious inquiry > > > >AA: Good thing you clarified that.
