mission accomplished

Cateodata a fi British inseamna in primul rand, o impecabila structura a argumentului si un condei de lord bine educat.
Cateodata ai nevoie de detasarea unui brandy la country-club ca sa poti sa scrii:

"Some just wars, however, are not worth fighting. There are countries that do not matter very much to the rest of the world. Rwanda is one tragic example; and its case illustrates the immorality of a completely pragmatic foreign policy. But Iraq, the world's axial country since the beginning of history and all the more important in the current era for probably possessing the world's largest reserves of oil, is no Rwanda. Nor do two or three improvised explosive devices a day, for all the personal tragedy involved in each casualty, make a Vietnam."

Poate cea mai buna analiza a situatiei din Irak pe care am citit-o.

Nu-i de mirare ca asta-i tara care l-a dat pe Sherlok Holmes.
