TJ, rather than relitigate forever, backwards for 10,000 years, or longer for those with long memories, over conflicts in regard to which nobody involved is alive, it's more sensible to ponder the ethics and good sense of what is happening now and being done tomorrow and after that. So, who cares about the American civil war, or whether Mao's Maelstrom was a good thing or worse than Lenin's leftist leanings and whether it was a fair idea to nail JC up or for Genghis to go on long holidays to the west and south? It's all olde history. Murders to happen tomorrow are another matter. So, one could reasonably ask whether King George II is doing a good thing to be still conducting regime change, WMD capture, forward Homeland Security maintenance, fly paper projects, and freedom, liberation and democracy in Iraq. Similarly, one could reasonably ask We the Sheeple whether we want state militaries armed to the teeth with WMD noocular MADness. And one could ask whether it's a promotion of peace, light, harmony, happiness, health, prosperity, longevity, fun and love for Hu Jintao's clonist minions to effect regime change, anti-democracy, suppression, conquest, forward Homeland Security enhancement and megalomania in Taiwan. It doesn't take a struggle of intellect to figure out a difference between Taiwan under democracy and Iraq under Saddam and to see that one regime change is reasonable and another is not. A hint is that Saddam didn't win the recent Iraqi election or even get a significant proportion of write-in votes. Roll on the Feather Duster manoeuvres. I wonder if the show will be "live" as seen on TV, or participants dead, "live" on TV. Mqurice
