Yes, and to me, the threat is even more likely today, because these people are not rational, and there is no deterrent from assured destruction that they fear or would care to avoid.

Remember when the Presidential Campaigns were talking about how to spend the “peace” dividend due to the economic implosion of the Soviet Union? A CNN news director was a panelist at a seminar bemoaning the fact that there really was no real news without the Russian Threat.

It is going to be a long, hot summer for the ill-prepared, and even those who think they are prepared .
