Strange world indeed...but not necessarily a bad one, all things considered.
Unfortunately, history goes in cycles, and I fear it's only a matter of time (perhaps not in our lifetime, but our children or great grandchildren's time) before those tanks return to the beaches again.

Wasn't it Twain who said "History doesn't repeat itself but it often rhymes?" Here's to hoping it doesn't repeat itself or rhyme with Putin as an aggressor.
