War hawk Friedman does post-Olympic flip-flip

Looking at Beijing’s not-so-flat-world seven years of building for the Olympics, Thomas Friedman says, with utter hypocritical sincerity, that we sadly missed the boat and need to do the same. No mention of his support, his unblinking, unwavering support, for building all the military hardware and invading all the supposed battlefields of the “global war on terror) (ever notice how much GWOT sounds like “snot”?) in the past seven years?

Tom, the column would have had more meaning if your apology had been attached somewhere.
