Re: Hitchens knows why, but doesn't want to be the one to sa

I am willing to assert that Ethiopia, Somalia, and maybe even Libya - the ancient Carthage - would be far better places today, if the Italians were running them. As for King Leopold, he was a Northern European nut job, and like today, rulers like him got away with a lot that their subjects or citizens never approved or had notice about. As a matter of fact, Corporations are an invention of the King Leopolds and Queen Elizabeths and other acquisitive Elitists of our Modern, and maybe not so modern, World at Large. When you are playing the Game of Life, and somehow, the rules keep changing to your own disadvantage, that's how you know you are being exploited, like a third world country, or a mineral deposit, or a worker without respect or recourse. Sound familiar? I will not critique the ideologies or education of other people, but for God's sake, at least, please folks, SMARTEN UP.
