OT The answer to Iraq

... http://www.salon.com/opinion/scheer/...end/print.html For the past couple of weeks, I've been reading a book about our escapade in the Phillippines in 1898. Reading quotes from President McKinley, from military personnel and observers during that war, the parallels are chilling. If I have time this weekend, maybe I'll post some short excerpts. If anyone's interested, the book is "In Our Image: America's Empire in the Phillipines", by Stanley Karnow. It's well worth the effort to hunt it down at the library, or find a used copy online at a place like www.powells.com, Barnes & Noble, etc. |
