Syria
As in Rwanda, the world frets and worries and debates and threatens and denounces ad infinitum ad nauseum, while innocent people are being murdered by their own government.
President Obama, like the European leaders, has proven that he is one of those people who is incapable of true outrage against moral turpitude.
There are no heroes here, neither presently nor historically.
Turkey, while trying to broker a ceasefire, still refuses to admit to the murder of over one million Armenians and makes it a crime even to say it occurred.
After the communists took over in China more than 20 million people were murdered. Under Stalin more than 20 million also were murdered. Naturally, China and Russia are the strongest supporters of Syria although the ultimate honors go to Hezbollah and Iran.
How interesting that the people who detest Israel the most have little or nothing to say against Syria.
It's called "selective outrage."

Winterset
One of the first plays I did -- Maxwell Anderson's glorious Winterset -- has what may be my all-time favorite role: Mio Bartolomeo. The play deals with the imagined aftermath of the Sacco and Vanzetti case.
Here is a still from the production.

Mario Cuomo
Mario Cuomo, a man of enormous dignity, integrity, humanity, passion, courage and towering intellect has left us and the loss is enormous. Aside from Bernie Sanders, there is no one in the political arena today who can come anywhere close to matching what he stood for. Again, that repugnant malignant monster death, has taken a great one from us. I am enormously grateful that he lived, but to lose him is heartbreaking. His greatest hero was Lincoln. As they say "like attracts like." He will always be an inspiration.
