Halit,

I don't know how to cope either.  I can't get rid of the feeling there
are more wars to come with more and more nations involved and there
won't be much left afterwards, not even the "freedom statue" (as it
should be called properly now, since the "Statue of Liberty" was a
French present to New York, the original is still in France, the country
in which "liberty, equality and brotherhood" was 'invented', during the
French Revolution, no American trademark on "freedom"....  No chance to
get the copyright on that).  I try to do without becoming cynical, but
cynicism -- at least in my case -- is a poor mask for the feeling of
despair behind it.  The "big boys" are going to fight and it will be too
late when they realize it's not a computer game.
