Excuse me for hijacking the thread but WTF does that mean?
In the cold war there was threat of nuclear fallout, before that there were the nazis, before that was world war I, etc.
Not that I support the war in Iraq- I don't. But it pisses me off when people imply that the world is much worse than it was in the good old days. What good old days? The days when blacks weren't allowed to use the same water fountains? The days when arena sports included naval combat and feeding people of other religions to lions? The days when Napoleon lined up prisoners on the coast and executed them all for 3 days straight tinting the sea blood red?
The world always sucked, always will.
