I brought it up as an answer to your advising me to take Prozac, by not
only telling you that I am already doing so, but also informing you as to
why. And my defence of the ineluctable logic of cost-benefit-analysis-
driven conventional pre-emption applied to the present Iraqi situation is
eminently rational, as is my questioning of the motives of those who
choose to turn a blind eye to such logic and instead indulge in
hysterical ad hominems against those who proffer same, based upon
their accused association with some supposedly Great Satan neocons,
and accuse a US that has already been subjected to one devastating
attack, and is determined to forfend another, of naked, cynical and
politically-driven aggression, rather than acknowledging the fact that an
evolving policy of conventional pre-emption is the logical result of a
painful lesson learned in NYC.
