A response to NYTimes article Egypt’s Military Leaders Face Power Sharing Test This article was intended as an analysis of the activities on the ground in Egypt. Any casual observer of Egypt would have made many of the deductions concluded by THOM SHANKER and ERIC SCHMITT in their "content-free" analysis; same deductions but not necessarily with the same scorn.

Wars, pestilence, nature, and then more wars. That essentially sums up the plight of man for centuries. Until the last one. And the reach and scope of pestilence abated as medical advances and increasing condition of living spread across the globe; and the advent of
In A Very Liberal Intervention , ROSS DOUTHAT assertions ... Because liberal wars depend on constant consensus-building within the (so-called) international community, they tend to be fought by committee, at a glacial pace, and with a caution that shades into tactical incompetence.

But Treasury had a chance to buy these toxic assets at the fire-sale they deserved to be sold for and could have been talking 5 times or more in profit. Yet it is talking a paltry 10%. Indeed, TARP's injustice remains the socialization of loss and capitalization of profits.
Qaddafi, a twenty seven year old accident of history had a grand ambition, to become a seventy something year old emperor of Africa and the soul of revolutions once past.
