On the Hawks lack of diplomacy:
'Mr Wilkerson compares Mr Powell's carrot-and stick approach to Pakistan with the hawks' lack of diplomacy.

"When all you use is a stick, you're not going to get very far." Negotiation, he argued, makes more progress "than if you just sanction somebody and walk off and say, 'That's it, I'm not dealing with you any more'."

"It hasn't worked in Cuba for 40 years," says Mr Hylton.

"[It is the] dumbest policy on the face of the Earth," replies Mr Wilkerson.'

MY COMMENT: No kidding. With Kerry we will rejoin the World, but it will take time to overcome the damage caused by the Bush Administration.
