***The more sensitive among the struggle to extrapolate experiences of war from our everyday experience, discussing the latest mortality statistics from Guatemala, sensitizing ourselves where parents were time memories, or incorporating into our framework of reality as depicted by a mailer or a Coppola.***

Huh?

LOL If he truly wrote that he must have had a hold on some killer weed. I suspect weed only because this isn’t what one would expect from an all night coke jag.

Here is the corrected version, but I am not convinced the original is less embarrassing to him than the erroneous version! Good God. “The more sensitive among us”?

“The more sensitive among us struggle to extrapolate experiences of war from our everyday experience, discussing the latest mortality statistics from Guatemala, sensitizing ourselves to our parents war time memories, or incorporating into our framework of reality as depicted by a Mailer or a Coppola. But the taste of war-the sounds and chill, the dead bodies-are remote and far removed. We know that wars have occurred, will occur, are occurring, but bringing such experienced down into our hearts, and taking continual, tangible steps to prevent war, becomes a difficult task. “

and investigating the possible development of an interdisciplinary program in the Columbia curriculum dealing with peace, disarmament, and world order.

Obviously he has no conception of history. World order?

Only be squealching freedom and becoming a dictatorial could you even approach this concept.

Has he not seen the lessons of Hitler, Mao or Stalin?

They tried to achieve world order by persecution and murder.
