Yes, Damien, and yes, Olga! THESE are the things that really worry me. And
NK is not the only country that concerns me. There is in my view a huge risk
of global destabilization if other countries follow our lead.
Has anyone other than me noticed that the war on Iraq was billed initially
as a war against terrorism, but that it's now suddenly being billed as a war
for the liberation of the Iraqi people? It seems the war is billed each day
in whatever way the administration thinks will best play on the evening
news.
