Come on, Larry! After you take my argument to lengths that I never extended it, you don't like it. What a shock. P.S. Perhaps you like Kohmeni, etc, better than the Shah of Iran, Batista and Richard Nixon? Did any of those (questionable for certain) people expect you to pray to them? Look. The Shah of Iran sucked. Do, or did you, have any BETTER ideas? Maybe give Iran to Kohmeni 20 years ago, so he could kill more people/ Certainly you don't like Juan deBatista. How do you like what you have now? Why did you leave out Ferdinand Marcos? (Or did you leave him out because of the disgusting attitude of the people who oppose him? He IS a really violent dictator, you know.) What about West Germany, where they shoot all those wonderful Black Septembrists on sight? Isn't THAT a police state? How about Maggie Thatcher, who threatened to use troops if necessary to keep the mills going? How do you like having your exagerations carried even farther? Look, damnit, this world is far from ideal. Rather than hearing some constructive criticism telling me what we SHOULD have done with the Shah and Batista, all I hear from you is what you don't like. How about some better alternatives? Where are we going to get GOOD leaders in a country that's killed them all off long before we got involved. Where are we going to find good leaders in a country that marxist guerrillas (sp!) have killed off the moderates, which is one of their KNOWN and DELIBERATE ploys to destabilize a country. OK. You don't like what you see, so do you have something better, or do you want to stick your head in a barrel of fertilizer and wait until you HAVE to defend your own home and family ON YOUR SOIL? Provide some USEFUL and CONSTRUCTIVE criticism, please. Your tearing down and ripping up isn't going to help anyone.
