Well, now that the Iran/British hostage (oops...didn't mean to call it what it was) crisis is over, what did we learn?  We learned that despite being constantly told that we need to look to history to learn from our mistakes, the world has learned nothing from the history of Neville Chamberlain.  This is the same British man who said we could have "peace in our time" and that Hitler could be talked too and negotiated with.  Say, how did that route work out?  Iran's president, and the ruling Mullah's can not be negotiated with.  Essentially what you had happen was, was a game of whack-a-mole.  You know that game at arcades, where a mole pops his head out of one of several holes, and it's your job to "whack him."  Well, President Tom (as Glenn Beck calls him) stuck his head out of a hole and the world didn't whack him.  Instead, he stuck his head out of the hole and saw the world has officially put it's collective heads in the sand and will not respond to anything.  When Iran and Syria were backing Hezbollah last summer against Israel, within days the world turned against Israel and blamed them for everything.  The Useless Nations passed 17 resolutions after Saddam signed the cease-fire agreement in 1991, and didn't enforce one of them....that was, of course, before the cowboy George W. Bush came along!  The freaking UN even had to water down their "condemnation" letter of Iran's taking of the British hostages.  Hey, where was Human Rights Watch?  I thought putting hostages on video was against the Geneva Convention....or at least frowned upon.  But, remember, America is the bad place.  At the end of the day, what this 2 week crisis showed, is that once again, there is a dispotic leader in the middle east, who has publicly stated that Israel should be wiped off the map, supports terrorist groups, and says that America is satan, and the rest of the world seems to have a case of Sgt. Schultze....."I see nothing, I hear nothing...nothing!!"  Well, I do see.  And what I see is the world on a collision course with Iran.  And I also see a world full of Nevelle Chamberlain's.  President Bush will stand up.  The rest of the world?  Umm, not so much.
