They're not against stability, per se. It's more of a cultural mindset. The basis of the leftist worldview is the reliance upon "rationality". It's simply irrational to them to resort to force. They believe that a "rational" approach, where eveyone sits down and talks about resolving their differences, can solve any problem. Their worldview falls apart when they face an "irrational" opponent.

"Right, they're only against stability when it's a legitimate representative form of governance that takes into account inalienable human rights.'

Well, of course. They're all in favor of instability when directed against a government that "oppresses the legitimate aspirations of the people to free housing, free food, free medical care, and the freedom of the people to vote for the socialist of their choice."

Don't you mean the third? Bush senior had Operation Desert Storm. Clinton had Operation Desert Fox.

Desert Storm-mania. Not Desert Storm, but an incredible simulation. Any Beatle fans out there?

BorrowStealing the name of a Medo-Persian historical icon would overwind quite a few gahtras, the traditional arab head covers. :) Actually, co-opting the name would enrage the Iraqi people. Like we ought to be anyway, whether or not Saddam called his first WTC attack "Operation Lexingtion."

Thank you Bill Clinton for ignoring Jihad in America.
