Is the Bush regime responsible for stifling moral evolution?
Societies seem to become more empathetic as time passes.
Bush and Co. have made the business of war acceptable again. Give the troops some Iraqi artifacts, some quick cash, and an Iraqi woman (or man!) to rape in the Green Zone brothel or a fellow female troop and they seem to be just as happy as the days of the Crusades where war was seen as a business as much as it is now. All of which seems to take a step backward as far as the advancement of values is concerned.
I am not a democrat, sorry that you wasted so much time with your mistaken rant. I am a Socialist. You are a black and white thinker, a typical Republican, living is easy with eyes closed misunderstanding all you see…

You’ve already got their president, they don’t have any more nuks, and the people are at the verge of a religious civil war!

Expectations were high for this 1981 collaboration between the two men, who essentially invented the box office blockbuster with â70s… |

Khartoum $14.98 Set in the expanse of the Sudan desert in the midst of holy war, Khartoum (1966) plays like an attempt to work the Lawrence of Arabia magic on the (mostly) true story of eccentric British general Charles “Chinese” Gordon in 1884 North Africa. The magnificent opening desert battle suggests David Lean’s epic sweep, at least until the film settles into a more modest story of political games, military… |
