The real Heroes

The real heroes of this whole mess are the Colombian military men being held by the FARC. By all acounts they behave as officers and gentlemen under the most brutal conditions known since WWII. Ingrid is a spoiled brat with megalomanic ambitions.

the order of hate

Its revealing to see that even when collectively imprisoned there are some hatreds that will still trump all. Didnt we see the same in Auchwitz, and Vichy? There is always "order" in the mind of a properly eductaed person it seems.

Simple old me thought good and evil were to a large degree, absolute concepts. I know, I am so "un-refined". My clothes are incomplete and perhaps not as pretty as I would like. But my clothes are real. And I am always working on them to make them better.

Still, CIA you say? Thats a lable that precludes any further examination of marality, the sentence can be handed down without further ado. Reminds me of 27 million free Iraqis in a way. Can you see why?
