I really appreciate Warren's essays. He's knowledgeable and very clear in his thinking and writing. A treasure for conservatives and anyone who wants to learn something other than the liberal dizinformation. Thanks for the ping!

Yes, I enjoy his clear thinking and writing.

It's amazing how people don't want to apply to international arena the common sense what they do use in "normal" life. If you are confronted with a local bully or a thug, what do you do? If you have a local gang, what then? If you can't manage yourself, do you organize help, do you call police? Do you move out? How far? And again? These are all hard, but normal questions that people answer in different ways, but they do answer them. When they know that they themselves don't have enough force or guts to act, they will rely on others in some ways, but won't normally think that its good to have a gang of thugs to rule over them. When confronted with Saddam and Osama sized thugs, they suddenly don't want to do anything, but thing "kumbaya". Its called delusion in my vocabluary.

"But the arrival in England of the western world's pre-eminent statesman ignites a self-righteous outcry; and the coalition's demonstrators directly aid potential terrorists by distracting the police from urgent security measures."
"the demonstrators...are reliable allies of the people who flew airplanes into the World Trade Center, who blow up Jews in synagogues and supermarkets, who tortured and murdered hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis and bulldozed their bodies into mass graves."

Very Good. Thanks for the ping.
