For those who have been following the estimable Mark Steyns - TopicsExpress



          

For those who have been following the estimable Mark Steyns travails in the US justice system (hes in a frivolous lawsuit initiated by M Mann) he posted an interesting comment today that bears repeating. Mark dwelt on the legal systems propensity to settle cases rather than bring them to trial. From this he extrapolates an interesting, if disturbing hypothesis. Quoted below: By the way, looking at Americas latest unwon war in Afghanistan, I wonder if the fetish for settling hasnt infected US war-making. America wages war like a sclerotic case at the DC Superior Court: it goes on for years, its ruinously expensive, and at the end of it theres no real defeat or victory, we just agree to settle. Thoughts?
