"What's that saying?
"An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of Cure."
This comes late. Expect a repeat in regards to Iran.
To be fair, Bildt's attitude is a welcome relief, but his election does not put an end to nihilism. Sadly, Sweden will most likely continue in its complacent and amoral tradition."
I'm also afraid Iran will be a repeat of what happened in the case of Iraq.
But WHY?
One, big, part of the problem is this;
Prestige.
If the US would "wait" with undertaking any military action against Iran until the EU says the time is ripe, it will look as the US is being "obedient" visavi the Europeans. Therefore, the US is bound to rush it again and in that way we westeners run the risk of actually doing more harm to the Western World itself than to islamofascism.
People like Bush, Blix and Bildt might disagree over several issues, but they all understand the importance of these two things;
- Defending Western Civilization
- Creating unity in the Western World
Personally speaking, Any enlightened person who shares these goals with me, I consider an ally.
