“Biden says we must win the war. This is precisely wrong. The United States must learn to lose this war – a harder task, in many ways, than winning, for it requires admitting mistakes and relinquishing attractive fantasies. This is the true moral mission of our time (well, of the next few years, anyway).” – Jonathan Schell, saying out loud what many on the Left believe, and have long believed. Good that some of them are finally being more honest about their loathing of the West.
MORE REVISIONISM: Here’s Harold Meyerson, another left-liberal who seems to have become unhinged by the Bush administration:
So much for American unilateralism. As our strategic doctrine of choice, unilateralism had a one-year run, from one Labor Day to the next. A year ago the administration announced we had both the right and the might to run the world free from the constraints of entangling alliances or multinational accords.
A year ago, in fact, the president went to the U.N. to bring that world body into a multilateral attempt to prevent terrorism. Does Meyerson remember nothing?
