This reminds me of fantasy baseball. People, both men and women, call in
to WFAN in NYC and suggest trades as if they were general managers. I
think for Yoshie's mental health it would be advisable to not read about
Iran for maybe 6 months or so. Clearly we are dealing with an unhealthy
obsession.

It's perfectly fine if you are not interested in how a socialist might approach a real-world problem. But does your posting contribute anything that adds to anyone's understanding of anything? If all you want to say is "Fuck you," it takes only two words to say it. -- Yoshie
