Was it just my imagination, but did the Herald over the weekend publish a whole page of Vietnam/Iraq stuff without mentioning once: a) the Tet Offensive was a “last gasp” effort by the VC, and was an American victory b) Bush was making reference to the “insurgecy” trying to influence the American public Could be… Continue reading Herald on Vietnam

What’s Worse?
Betraying your country? Or betraying your country, waiting a couple of months then saying “whoops“. Not good enough.
The Geneva Convention and Terrorism
Consider this diagram. Now, answer this question: which line is straightest within the box at the top, A or B. The answer is that both are perfectly straight within the box.
