Mike Moore Sin #1: Self-Serving WTC Dead Class Warfare (very despicable).

Here I felt sure he was about to pull a Pat Robertson fundamentalism thing,
which he essentially did, but then he pulled a sharp left: Post-Cold War
Retro-Vision. Hard to argue with real past sins, but let's ask ourselves a
very basic question: Should the US have unilaterally disengaged from the
"Cold War?" Would that have produced a better NOW?
>We propped up the Shah of Iran when maybe we shouldn't have. We have used

>we shouldn't..."
And now the majority of Iran wishes to shed itself of the last revolution.
And Iran may yet prove to be our best ally in this region. How ironic a
teacher is time, god love her.
Love,
David Morris
