It is not hard to “like” this article… It is written by someone very eloquent, it touches upon important issues, it is not excessively anti-American, and yet, it is fully ‘politically correct’ – from the European point of view. But what about the ideas in my post? ( Message 18312122 ) I’ll let you in on a little secret: my post is actually an outline for a book. It will be another book which the “evenhanded” in Europe, ME and elsewhere would ignore, while they chatter themselves into an intellectual frenzy, blind to realities… Without smart people… what would the world do for entertainment? For generations, Europe was complaining about being ‘stuck’ between two giants – US and the USSR. If those giants started a fight, Europe was going to suffer… in practical terms, there was little difference to be seen between the two. Now, when Russia is on its way to become a friend of the US, the “Continent” complains even louder – that at least the Communists used to “check” the power of the US. No need to worry: With some more advice from our WISER friends, some day we may yet discover a way to… please everyone.
