And what happened on the ground did it not trouble you?

From the Elbe River in Germany to Vladivostok (Владивосток) and on to the Bering Straits 12 timezones to the East you had the Soviet Union and it's client states. That's ignoring Cuba! And "revolutions" fomenting in other places in Central and South America, Africa, and Asia. These were defensive actions? Give me a break!

New Of course! that is the "other side"
of an infinite series of stimulus/response == the Same Game as makes the Palestinian/Israeli matter just as insoluble:

from present juvenile Eye-for Eye Old Testament mindsets, forged in ignorance and superstitions of the past.

I may be cracked, but - I deem that escalating the already significant risk of nuclear winter for All Species, via MIRV escalation: is on another scale from all of these ordinary, predictable homo-sap Power-quests. That was obscene, despicable and we started it.

(As of 12/25/02: ICBM response time is still TWO MINUTES, last I heard from the hardened grapevine)
