Manx,
We've had this discussion before, you can learn from history without political fingerpointing.
We can very look at the past say it happened and find out why and learn from it. You cannot keep hate alive for past events like Iran-Contra, it serves no purpose. But you can look to see what truly happened and make laws and make sure they are enforced to prevent it happening again.
It's just my opinion, I just don't see what screaming and finger pointing about the past does if that is all you do.
It was a different time and different administration.
Same as the bombing of the Maine.
No country's government is 100% pure and righteous, every country has a history of mistakes and being self serving while hurting another country. All you can do is learn what they did, and why they felt they had to do what they did and if enough deem it bad enough pass laws to make sure it never again happens..... but to just yell and try to create problems is doing nothing but dividng people and taking your eyes of problems that need attention today.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
