On a flight to Norfolk a few months back, I sat near a former Navy Seal. In speaking with him, I gathered these somewhat scattered thoughts: The media has turned actual, substantive drama into entertainment. Wars will always occur; there will always be those that are unsatisfied with their current level of attainment. Someone will always be beating the drum. If two dogs are fighting, does one simply walking away end it? Or would the dogs still fight?
Me: “But the Scandinavian countries don’t really seem to have a target on them.”
Former Seal: “Horse shit.”
