    Interesting article in Foreign Policy by Llosa regarding the rise of Latin American marxist thugocracies and their supporters in the west.

    It never ceases to amaze me how the leftists that are best on domestic (american) civil liberties issues turn a blind eye to the abuses of men like Chavez.

    From this arises the question whether it is better to be loved rather than feared, or feared rather than loved. It might perhaps be answered that we should wish to be both: but since love and fear can hardly exist together, if we must choose between them, it is far safer to be feared than loved.
