Smart People

poor georgie’s almanack:

Irony: The 1919 peace treaty that ended WW1 led to WW2 and the MidEast mess and is commemorated today as Veterans Day.

It was signed at Versailles’ Hall of Mirrors by pretty smart leaders worrying about their own constituencies and their individual perceptions of a future that could not possibly exist.  

Alas, if different decisions had been made in that real and virtual Hall of Mirrors, there would be fewer noble veterans to commemorate today.
