Dear Mr. Huttunen, you postulated:

Don't you think it would be somewhat unfair to drag these people
out of their rocking chairs, and away from their great-grandchildren,
and press them into political service? And is this what the Iraqis
want - a restoration of a regime from over 30 years ago?
Rauno:
So what. In Estonia they restore a regime from over 40 years ago.

By that token the true independence of France, Belgium, Poland,
Austria, Czechoslovakia, etc., would have demanded that they remain
under the occupation of Nazi Germany. I am not saying this is not so
- perhaps it is exactly what they would deserve. I just wish to
ensure that we are on the same wavelength.
Rauno:
So, we have to pay the prise today and that prise is that Europe can decide its own defence. How long we have to pay the prise? I am not sure we are on the same wavelength. Our history and our values are so much different. Superpowers have always ruled the world (Rome, France, England, Soviet Union & USA) - they give and they take away. UN is only hope for small states but now its role has changed radically.
