Pretty soon, the world will scramble around to delude ourselves that all is not lost, things are not quite as bad as we initially thought, maybe it is a good thing that Iran has lost its nuclear capabilities, look the oil price is beginning to stabilize, at least america reinforced it nuclear deterrence against other rogue states what's wrong with that, let's bygone be bygone what's more important is humanitarian relief to poor Iranians, nuclear bombs did save more lives than killed don't you know, etc, etc.

We should not be surprised if not only Tony but Chirac and Putin fly to Washington, and call upon the world jointly with Bush that we must stand united behind america at a moment of tragedy in order not to "repeat the tragedy of Iraq."

Those who died in Hiroshima and Nagasaki (and all those Chinese, Koreans, Filipinos and other Asians who suffered under our occupation) died in vain. May their souls rest in peace.

I will become a patissier, God willing.
