Under the circumstances, what distinguishes the US
from an aggressor? Will the Battle of Baghdad end up
in history like the Battle of Budapest, Hungary, in
1956? Then, to its everlasting shame, the USSR stifled
a liberal-commie rebellion with tanks and machine guns
against very lightly-armed civilians (this was the
battle, I think, that created the term Molotov
Cocktail, for gasoline-filled wine bottles with
rag-wicks, tossed at tanks; Molotov was the USSR's
foreign minister). The black and white newsreels of
the battles in the streets of Budapest are still used
to symbolize brutal oppression of a people.
This is a quote from my father. Whether he was a good father or not does not reflect on his intelligence. As is demonstrated here, he is a genius.
