"It is a deplorable fact of life that "democracy" is not a magic bullet, transforming societies with a single shot. The Palestinians democratically elected Hamas. The Germans democratically elected Adolf Hitler. Vox populi is not always Vox Dei.
Perhaps, after Adam and Eve were driven by God from Paradise, our disappointments in war and peace are a consequence of Original Sin. But I’m no theologian. I’m just a newspaperman. Journalism has been described as writing "history in a hurry." The true historians will decide whether Mr. Bush, or Mr. Blair, or any leader who sends his men and women into harm’s way, were right or wrong" - MVS

Carlo Soldevilla Last week, I read about the life of Harrison Ford. He refused to join the American Forces to fight during the Vietnam War (almost same with what Ali the boxer did). His reason was that, unless the person climbs over his fence, that would give him the right reason to enter into warfare.
