We weren’t at war for 10 years between 1991 and 2001. But since 9/11, the need to clear and stabilize dysfunctional countries has been a major priority. The decision was taken to try to cut off the cycles of tyranny, revolt, and repression and thus gain real peace. It’s taken a lot longer than we thought, but the aim has been to end and prevent wars, not start them.

Oh, and since you’re here finally, here’s a HuffPo page I’ve been saving just for you.

Predators and opportunists thrive in chaos. Sometimes that can be good, if one is trying to make changes that will benefit the world. Mostly (my cynical view) it is bad because the greedy and the power hungry use the upheaval to their benefit.

Thus, the current scourge of Religious Zealots —ripe for the picking.

9/11 created chaos —I have no doubt the planners are laughing in satisfaction.
