I have to agree with Mr. Gore that the US does seem to be developing a remarkably shorter attention span than ever before.

They supported a war against the Soviets in Afghanistan, and then when that seemed sorted out, proceeded to ignore Afghanistan.

For decades they fought a Cold War against the Soviet Union, and then when the USSR collapsed, they immediately... began to ignore Russia.

They fight a war in Iraq, and once things are barely settled, they leave things to fall apart again.

They return to fight a war in Afghanistan, and as soon as the dust has settled, now they're galloping off back to Iraq.

Meanwhile, Russia turned into gangster paradise instead of becoming a stable capitalist country, and Afghanistan is more like WarLordistan. posted by Richard at 09:44 / permalink (post) | permalink (numeric)
