Ah good ol blind uncritical idealism, always ever popular at the Universities. I really have to shake my head in dismay at them so often. Yet one of the big goals in University is to teach critical thought, oh the irony.

I like peace as much as the next person, and prefer not to have to kill. But I am not so foolish as to think that placating an enemy will make them my friend. Sometimes there is no choice. I do though think the Iraq war was a big mistake. Maybe Bush got Iran and Iraq mixed up
