Thanks for your comment, comrade. I have to admit, as an 86-yr old veteran, that I am bemused by the discussion going on in the left about Libya, Syria, Afghanistan and all: Binh on Lou's blog made the best comparison of all - it is 1848 all over again, but now in the Arab world, with the decadent West trying their hardest to interfere to their own advantage. Our necessity seems so clear to me - WE NEED a SPRING HERE !! and let the Arabs develop THEIR OWN revolution - perhaps they will do better than we did - and I do hope so.

I - and I hope all others on this list - just hope, with all our hearts, that the best of Libyan common society will win out in the end." All I can say here, is Paddy, you're a good guy!
