Hardly know the name, have no ideas how to listen to him even if I had any inclination to do so. I am not clear how its ok to rape, pillage and enslave a society and decimate its culture long as you leave a small tip on the dresser? The Nazi's and Soviets brought common law and a superior culture (well it wasn't put to a vote -- but they ensured us it was superior) to its conquested countries. Sorry I don't have the stomach for empires, imperialism and exploitation of entire countries and societies. But I am happy such practices and mindsets enrich your life. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I cheer for the British everytime I have to watch the DVD of Ghandi.
