And there really will come a time, believe it or not, when a future American President baffled and paralyzed by the latest insanity from the Middle East—whether an Iranian nuke or a Syrian invasion of Lebanon or another Middle East war or the usual assassination and killing of Americans—will ask former president George Bush II for advice, as a then fawning media will look back to his past "toughness" and "determination" when under fire. That seems unhinged now, but it too will come to pass, as they say.
Um, yeah.
You know I played "Risk" in college -- but I managed not to take its dynamics to heart as being like the real world. Too much Risk & too many viewings of Jason & the Argonauts and suddenly you fancy yourself a modern military scholar.
Ugh!
