Hey hey let's not forget China.  In Minnesota we have lots of Vietnamese
refugees and I heard more than one story about being forced to fight on
behalf of the communists.  

We also have Juneteenth celebration in Mn where we celebrate the last
slaves being freed in Texas.  I remember driving down to Gettysburg and
reading there how the battle turned when the Minnesotans came rushing in
(The regiment reportedly suffered an 82 percent causality rate.
http://www2.smumn.edu/deptpages/~history/civil_war/).  

In all cases though, I don't wonder if war doesn't in fact cause more
hardship than whatever evil it is supposedly being waged against.  Well
we Minnesotans (I hope) do realize our perhaps treating Native American
unjustly wasn't in hindsight that way it ought have been done. 

I hope Bush will dedicate his time out of office to helping those who
were hurt by his rush to (quite possibly --if not stronger --
unnecessary)action.
