I understand your concerns.

For now I’ll rejoice in the human spirit and desire for freedom of the Libyans as they overthrow a brutal dictatorship.

Later I’ll mourn the death of their idealism when their revolution is betrayed, likely with western help.

Sounds like a plan to me.

” For now I’ll rejoice in the human spirit “

Yeah, I know that I’m assuming, however reluctantly and unhappily, the role of “Pig in Church”, here —

But, when virtually all of the ‘information’ coming out seems designed and tailored to reinforce what I *want* to believe, I need to step back, take a breath, and wonder why...

I may very well be wrong - heck, I fervently *HOPE* I’m wrong — but I just can’t, and won’t, join in the emotional stampede....
