“Use the conquered foe to augment one’s own strength” – Sun Tzu
Two longtime members of the anti-American camp met Wednesday for talks about the oil market: Libya’s Moammar Gadhafi, who’s coming from the cold after the U.S. restored relations, and Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, who’s going deeper into the freeze after being hit with a U.S. arms embargo.Gadhafi, his face partly covered by a large brown scarf draped over his Arab tribal robe, welcomed Hugo Chavez at his house, scarred with bullet holes and showing damage to some of the crenelated concrete at the top of the building from a 1986 U.S. bombing raid. The two leaders met for about an hour in a tent near the wrecked home.

dave added these pithy words on 18 May 06 at 12:58 amI like how the terrorist attack against Libya is mentioned as a “bombing raid” as if it were some legitimate millitary attack. I wonder how the press would describe it if it had been Libya who dropped bombs on our presidents house and killed his daughter. I’m guessing they wouldn’t call it a “bombing raid.” But it’s not terrorism when we do it.
