On Brilliant military campaign : before this thing is over, the US could suffer as many deaths as during its civil war. So if America decides not to intervene and wait for the ugly guy to die naturally, I'd be the first to say that it is a sound policy. In my best judgement.
This being said, I have read almost, if not all of Jochen posts in the last six months, (links too )provided they were not in German.
I like what he writes, and he knows is.
Now he happens that he is the only "survivor" writing on FADG from continental Europe. (I used to be second Euro.) And him being German, it matters to me a lot what he says when America is possibly on the verge of a possible huge military intervention, probably the most dangerous of its history.
So with his background, wisdom, the knowledge of history he has regularly provided us with, his sensitivity, etc, you can easily sense that I am worried.
So I ask. Because he never appeared to me that he was worried about a long and painful US occupation of post Saddamia.
After all when Kennedy spoke in Berlin, everybody knew there was no oil underground there.
And finally, it's the second or third time I ask (OK tease) him for more...
So it's not only personal, it's also philosophical.
Relax Win, I know we are on FADG ! |
