    DM asked Platt: Define success, does not individual success depend on
    what the many permit and value?

    Platt said: No, just the opposite. Success is being yourself in spite
    of the constant pressure of the others to be like them.

    I said: Well, then, Platt, by that definition, the terrorists are
    successful, aren't they?

    Platt said: No, C.L. You don't get it. Terrorists want to be just
    like other terrorists.

    I'm wondering now if this now means that the US in Iraq is a weak and
    unsuccessful effort to act as a "constant pressure" on the terrorists
    to get them to be "to be more" like WHAT? Christians? Allah save us
    from the missionaries, the inquisitors and the crusaders.
