He's in denial, that's all. He wants to think the U.S. can do what it did in WWII, but this isn't WWII. Unfortunately, in war everybody loses. We won WWII but it paved the way for the Israel/Palestine thing. The day of the nation-state is over in any case. Speaking of the Israel/Palestine thing, Suskind says that the reason Bush is so militantly pro-Israel is because his father was friendly with the Saudis and other Arabs. He has never consulted his father, a treasure trove of experience and information (Bush, Sr. had also been head of CIA at one point). I think Woodward makes that point in State of Denial. I heard somebody interviewed (it might have been Suskind) who called Dubya the Uncola. Whatever Sr. and Clinton did, he did the opposite, whether it was good policy or not. > [Original Message] > From: Andreas Ramos <andreas@xxxxxxxxxxx> > To: Lit-Ideas <lit-ideas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: 10/27/2006 4:10:34 AM > Subject: [lit-ideas] Re: [SPAM] Re: The beginning of the end in Iraq > > From: "Andy Amago" <aamago@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > > Wow, this is getting too serious.
