Message: Entry: Mr. bin Laden, Meet Mr. Kennan--A New Containment Policy Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/mr_bin_laden_meet_mr_kennan_a_new_containment_policy#19459 Post contents: Dearest, Sweetest Scooter::: No need to get snippy, it either does not become you or risks telling us way too much about you. You sir, I'm sure, are as familiar with the history of this country & others as I. Essentially, my "issue" concerns..."becoming what one eats" and all those problems associated with subsequent in[digestions] & in[corporations]...Many distinquished Romans felt similiarly about the "Carthage" dilemma...as you know. Secondly, and much more importantly, is the problem of myth & reality. The ancients, as you know, worked hard to wretch reality from myth. It concerns me than Amerikans are working even harder to restore reality to myth. I think Mr Kennan would share that view. Finally, in an attempt to slow down just a little....and get our ducks in line. Maybe you would share with your audience the connection between George Kennan (Sr.'s) views on "Russian containment"( "Tent Life in Siberia") and those of Mr. X....please share, if you would, those helpful insights you might have regarding the "problems" of Latins & Byzantine's and their trailing effects on European Christianity & Asiatic Islam....You know Scott, the "clashing civilizations" of our day. Are we rivals or opponents?...Thank you for your gracious time & consideration Sent at: 2008 10 07
