My, my, my. How times have changed!
It has been 50 years since the building of the Berlin Wall began, when the communist East closed its border, and divided the city for 28 years.

Time goes fast when you're having fun. 
(That is amazing that so much time has passed. Now there's no E. Germany and no Soviet Union (although Putin is approaching that state again). |

I'll probably get hung, shot and my genital hair plaited uncomfortably for this, but the title of this meshed with a news item I was watching.
America is telling Syria and Libya to stop using force against a dissident minority, yet she fought a 4 year civil war to suppress her own separatist minority.
What was good then is bad now, apparently.

You make a very valid point.
I don't understand why we should be talking to or about them in any case. We seem to have enough problems of our own. |

Fortunately for Americans, the Federal government, and the costs associated with it, emerged from that battle triumphant over the various States of the Union.
