One could begin by not giving unqualified support to despots, real politik not withstanding.

Hi KLP; Re: "So what do you advocate, Carl? Just wait until the terrorists hit you or the city next to you?" No, I advocate not paying much attention to Neocon's weak analogies, or listening to weak arguments in general. I'm reminded of Neocon's repeated comparison of the Iraq occupation with WW2, LOL. Maybe you don't know what the meaning of "to the extent that your weak analogy holds water" means, and that is why you removed the first part of my sentence when you deliberately took my quote out of context by quoting me as saying: ", it shows that stamping out terrorism is quite hopeless." Or maybe you were trying to put words into my mouth that I didn't say. Either way your post was rather clumsy. -- Carl
