TDS - Three Generations of “America to the Rescue”

In perhaps the most brilliant segment on “The Daily Show” I’ve ever seen, last night Jon ran through the last three decades of United States intervention in the Middle East to show how incoherent, ass-backwards and counter-productive it has been.

One of the commenters (-ors? i dunno) from the site: "Your average ditto-head doesn’t want to hear history lessons. It’s easier just to say they hate us for our freedom. If you can figure out a way to condense decades of history into a catch phrase that fits on a bumper sticker, people might get it."

so sad, so true.
