The 'on your face' American depravity in backtracking from the original agreement on 123 is not an isolated phenomenon. Just the other day you had a dubbed neocon, a leading exponent of 'Clash of Civilisation' who thought it was all about pillow fight. Then there is that 'slam dunk' man wh thinks intelli is about selling war to Americans. The guy does not even realise how close he comes to Kafkaisque scene. You had that 'war-hero' who not only 'found' WMD in Iraq but who also 'found' in a Junta the makings for an anti-terror front and a 'true'blue' 'XXXX' partner. You have the Sec who invokes 'hunter's right' in Iraq and a whole lot of 'interested' partisans who extend the rules of everything fair in love and war to making money by all means. From such motley crowd of opportunists, to expect wisdom and rule of law, and the ideals which ordinary Americans and ordinary Indians abide by, is not really fair either. Yet, we need to expect that somehow events will turn and the decency of 'real Americans', as we know of it, and as Faulkner had eternally hoped, shall prevail.
