Kan ik iemand interesseren in een stukje cake?

  • Hmm let me see. True former colonies include Cuba, the Philippines and Liberia. The Panama Canal Zone. Hawaii was unceremoniously annexed, as were Guam and Puerto Rico. And a host of smaller islands.

    In a broader sense, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq are also very happy they’re once again independent from the US.

    In an even broader sense, most US allies are working for independence from the unreliable US as we speak.

  • 3 The true world--unattainable, indemonstrable, unpromisable; but the very thought of it--a consolation, an obligation, an imperative. (At bottom, the old sun, but seen through mist and skepticism. The idea has become elusive, pale, Nordic, Königsbergian.)

  • Sure, on a personal level, that’s true. But the country identifies its roots and legitimacy as based in and on the holocaust. It’s what its government never gets tired of repeating. Worse: ‘never again’ is actively used as the excuse for genocide.

  • Not many would lament the passing of the ayatollah regime. But, interesting question, who should replace them, especially during a time of upheaval?

    I’m sure there are very qualified people around, as Iran is a highly educated and cultured society. But would they be the ones to grab power? Or will we see an Iraq-like civil war? Wiping out the old regime is easy, maintaining stability a lot less.
