Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Or something to that effect.
How about, those who don't learn their lesson are doomed to be retaught? Or better - those who ignore the warnings are doomed to be made to look like idiots.
I like that one.
Here's a great example that ALLAHPUNDIT posted, through LGF.
1/25/2004: Nasrallah Gloats Over Prisoner Swap
Over two years ago, Nazi-rallah couldn't contain his glee over the incredibly one-sided swap between Israel and Hezbollah. Here's the kicker:

1/25/2004: Nasrallah Gloats Over Prisoner Swap
Over two years ago, Nazi-rallah couldn't contain his glee over the incredibly one-sided swap between Israel and Hezbollah. Here's the kicker:
"In the future we will achieve even greater results than today," Nasrallah said. Asked if Hezbollah would carry out further kidnappings, Nasrallah smiled and said, "yes".
That's right, boys and girls. He said yes.
I realize that Ariel Sharon is in a coma, but don't you think that someone else in the Israeli government would have been aware of this? I'm not a conspiracy theorist and I do not believe Israel planned on attacking Hezbollah before this outbreak began. But it gives me pause to wonder what Israel was thinking about when they agreed to this swap. Had the Yossi Beilin influenced-Israeli left taken too much toll of the government? In his role as charchitecttect of the suicidal Oslo accords, Beilin and his buddy Shimon Peres often turned a blind eye to what Israel's enemies.
I suppose there wasn't too much Israel could do once it made the swap. But it's like a bully who threatens to steal your lunch if you don't pay him, and once you do, he takes your lunch anyway. Either way, you lose your lunch, but at least you keep your dignity.
I accept the fact that the UN is impotent to do anything even remotely in Israel's interest, and I understand that no one else in the region would help. But that's something that Israel has been unable to fix. The propaganda that emanate from the Arab lands are so superior to anything Israel can attain that it makes the fight almost impossible.
Hezbollah, like Hamas and others, know that they have three outstanding allies in the war against Israel (and America). Liberals, the media and the dis-United Nations.
Against these enemies of Israel, victory is indeed hard to achieve. But one thing that Israel does have, that her enemies don't - they have their survival at stake. For the Arabs, even losing can work to their advantage. Even if Israel completely destroys Hezbollah, there are millions more Islamofacists just waiting to take it's place. But should Israel, G-d forbid, lose here, who will left to care? Who will be left to stop them?
If the American Left, and the mainstream media don't stop there sabotage of the American and Israeli war machines, no one will be left to fight for the freedom we take for granted.
Newt Gingrich is right. This is World War III. We just haven't really started fighting it yet. It took us over two years to enter WWII, and then only after being attacked by Japan. Although we did strike back at Afghanistan and are taking it to the enemy in Iraq, the American public is still asleep. Just like they were on December 6th, 1941 and just like they were on September 10th, 2001.
When will we wake up?
