but carranza is tired of hearing that, and i'm tired of typing it with only Mq listening, so hey who cares, sieg heil der PNACentury
Always good to hear what you say as it is well-thought out, politic in the best sense of the word, and often humorous, all of which do not keep me from disagreeing. vbg.
I am declaring a self-imposed hiatus on the "who rules" or "who should rule" debate because I don't have any satisfactory bright-line answers appropriate for the kind of terse internet-appropriate analysis, i.e., weak and incomplete, that is de rigueur here. Too much complex balancing between sovereignty, the right of self defense, the needs of the global system, etc. I don't feel intellectually equipped to discuss these issues except on a superficial level, and I don't like to wander too much into nebulous territory I don't feel comfortable traversing.
By the way, there is a GREAT article in this month's FA
foreignaffairs.org
I haven't completed reading on the obligation to prevent under international law, though it might be a bit too hegemonico-centric [how do you like that word] for your tastes, which you might enjoy as it touches on these points. |
