Political reflections
I think a majority of blogs have politicial commentaries at least from time to time. Surely mine has. Especially the issue of war with Iraq has dominated the politicial blogsphere (any political sphere) for the last months.
Not all reactions are equally reflected and well forumalated, and that goes for both sides I may add. For some serious reflections on history and politics, take a look at Subdued Citizen Reflects & Rails. I found his recent comparison of pre-1914 Germany and present day US interesting, especially as described in Kissinger's book Diplomacy.
And I have to note this quotation:
"This Administration appears to believe that we don't need diplomacy when we have such overwhelming military superiority."
This view is not anything new, I have to add. Small countries like mine needs good diplomacy. It is not a coincidence that many internationally famous top diplomats have been from small countries like Sweden or Norway. The US may not need good diplomats, or diplomatic behaviour generally, but would surely benefit from it.
