The irony that your Santayana quote fields here is just too sweet. To paraphrase it, perhaps those that forget history are also condemned to have it repeated for them??? - Jessica Lynch ring a bell (rape and beatings)?

Originally posted by JaTo: Isolated cases, you say? Yeah, about as isolated as the cases that are being plastered from here to kingdom come on the media outlets.

I will have to look around for some info on this. Or if you have some specific info, please share. I would hate to think supposition is enough for your attacks.
