The trick is not to select the "right" exclusivist/absolutist ideology, but to prevent any of them from achieving power. Yeah, we went through that with the Communist/Socialist/Fascist tyrannies of the 20th Century, and are still getting rid of the effects of them. Just when we thought we were entering a "Hegelian" Future, upped jump Islam! The piece you posted on the Iraqi situation does show that we are all like a group of blind men trying to describe an Elephant. We are five weeks into the rebuild part of the program, and all I can conclude is that we are at about the end of the beginning. No one has ever tried what we are trying, and mistakes will be made. It is going to be very easy to set here and nitpick it from afar. TWT is really true on this one.
