It is only in folk tales, children's stories, and the journals of intellectual opinion that power is used wisely and well to destroy evil. The real world teaches very different lessons, and it takes willful and dedicated ignorance to fail to perceive them.

Syria is descending into suicide. It's a horror story and getting worse and worse. There's no bright spot on the horizon.
