One thing IS clear, Moustache-For-Brains: War is the single most horrible brutal wasteful thing that "civilized man" can wreak on others.

Think what kind of total asshole sits there and tries to justify something that scars the world enough to take <i>20 full years </i>to recover from.

Friedman columns could also be the Golden Corral's "Chocolate Wonderfall", an ever-recycled brown liquid pouring down, over and over, keeping RealMerkin fatties fat and satisfied.
