It says it so well that I was surprised to see it in the Chindu - <BR/><BR/>"But the new power-wielders — alas, like the older ones — have behaved with such apparent indifference to the interests of the nation as a whole that their parochial obsessions and short horizons create increasing dangers for national unity and security.
