Glad To Know It

In the middle of the tragedy and comfort, it's delightful to imagine Melinda Doolittle and Dick Cheney chatting among 350 wounded returned soldiers at an "Idol" party (click to pg. 4 for that).

I really think the history of this last decade when viewed a few decades on along will disconcert and startle some of my friends. So much about Saudi Arabia that can't be said, and the peculiar problem of Western anti-Semitism. But if Iran is a rational state actor in another ten years from now, and Saudi's internal disasters haven't spread too widely, and Syria continues the course she's on, then . . . may we all live to happily see that outcome!
