Stitch: I believe that many of us Americans are having a hard time seeing things from outside of our own perspective. Morally it is wrong for any of us to have weapons inasmuch as it encourages others to have them. America is the most immoral judging by that criterion. That is not to say, of course, that it is right to arm oneself against the armed, but it is a natural and understandable tendency. The moral (and laughable) course is for everyone to gradually disarm - I wish my nation would take the lead. But it won't. I think we have images of Gandhi playing in our heads when we think of India and we just can't believe that India wants to be strong in the same way every other nation does. Am I the only one who feels that France was less criticized for its recent nuclear tests? These are just thoughts - I'm sure I will be castigated for thinking them and, worst of all, sharing them as, it seems to me, SI has become a bit venomous lately. My best to you. You've been quiet lately. Peter P.S. If people begin to die in Indonesia, let's not forget that America is their principle arms supplier.
