And i await the publication of the book.

Soros "This foreign policy is part of a comprehensive ideology customarily referred to as neoconservatism, though I prefer to describe it as a crude form of social Darwinism. I call it crude because it ignores the role of cooperation in the survival of the fittest, and puts all the emphasis on competition.>> yes.
In fact i would be commenting "yes,yes,yes" thru much of this essay by Soros.
Soros in no way is my Guru(i have no Gurus); but on reading him i say, wow this is fun, to read the thoughts of a rational deep thinking man and to realize we are NOT alone in this world, we DO exist:)
As i have said, my only real ambition now, in what i call the "the last chapter of my life"; is to exit as a rational AND empathic being.
i feel Soros to be of that particular tandem.
