No one will give up anything that gives them an undue advantage over others, even if that advantage is shared to stalemate.
I see the problem to be "hypocracy"; the clarification of "motives" within arguements between honest and decent combatants always shames them into compromise. The secondary problem is finding "honest and decent combatants"!
And I will pre-empt obvious comments by pointing out:
There is only one problem in this world; oversimplification!
while i realize the rather constant allegations of the "liberal" media, i was just walking thru the living room where the T.V. is on (entertaining my parrot) and its MSNBC with footage of "anti-war protesters" that seques into a clip of families of US military demonstrating in support of the troops but this time labeled "patriots." bias in language?
What? Bias in American mainstream media? Dyslexia! What Is Wrong With You??!!
If one wishes to avoid biased media, American or otherwise, one limits one's self to weather, TV listings, and the stock market ticker, and is specifically enjoined from considering analysis, opinion, and commentary.
Free press is a joke, except in the nooks and crannies where the great mass of the people never gets exposed to it.

Edgar -- I heard about that because sometimes at night I turn my radio dial to the Joyce Riley show -- and she is having fits about this and the lack of preparation for chem-bio warfare. The Pentagon has acknowledged that the masks don't work (faulty gasket or something), but haven't replaced them. It's very typical of what the administration and Congress are doing -- they've discovered that if they talk up one thing and do another, no one notices. (And those of us who do get slammed by the Foxies who think the news comes in one easy sentence with a sports/entertainment/Dow crawl.)

The subject above is translated from an ancient chinese book on war and army,written by sunzi.
