[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] It IS essential that we learn from the mistakes of the past. The debate here is whether we can call those policy decisions 'mistakes.' 'Mistake' implies that there was some other, better course of action that could be taken. Since all the talking heads, even with the added superiority of 20/20 hindsight, have thus far utterly failed to come up with any alternative favorable scenario, one must conclude that the actions were not mistakes at all. As Trek has put it... "It is possible to make no mistakes, and still lose." And criticizing a LACK of error is meaningless. [/QB][/QUOTE]
