Michael Ledeen of National Review, when referring to democracy in the Middle East, has been saying for years: "Faster, please". He's a very smart man and I look forward to his articles as much as those of Victor David Hanson.

Today Ledeen explains that the current worldwide trend of democratization began with ...are your ready for this?...the death of Generalisimo Franco of Spain! I love it when a writer surprises me with something like that.

Very informative article:

I think Ledeen is great but with my scatterbrain I forget to check his stuff. Thanks for the link, that was a particularly informative and inspiring piece!

Faster, please. The self-proclaimed experts have been wrong for generations. This is a revolutionary moment. Go for it.

Couldn't have said it better. Go for it, a term used by surfers usually yelled to a friend when they're about to take off on a wave. :-)

I really like Michael Ledeen - have you read his books? Very good.
