Re: an arteest

    How I hate to see Americans - who no doubt regard
    themselves as sophisticated liberals - chipping away
    endlessly, like whining babies in a supermarket, at the exertions
    of their own country. OF COURSE no government
    is run like a Sunday school. OF COURSE in this hard
    world each country must try to serve the interests of its
    own citizens. OF COURSE consistency & morality
    are irrelevant after the 6th grade debating society.

    Grow up.

    At least you're that significant, teeny-teeny-teeny bit kinder,
    better-intentioned, than the rest. Almost as good, in fact,
    as my own people before we withdrew to play the role
    of Greece to your Rome.

    It will be revealed soon, I'm sure, that it was nothing more
    than the CNN Rentacrowd who thronged, laughing & clapping
    last night round those young Americans in their APCs as
    they prepared to haul Sadam off his plinth. They were bloody
    good actors.

    Just for a moment, though - just maybe these next 48 hours -
    could you stop the cribbing & express some gratitude to those
    simple-hearted, bone-headed, probably sadistic militarists
    who have brought about a rather fundamental, perhaps even
    welcome, change in the lives of a whole lot of Iraqis?
