fill the gaps

The polical power of the occupier [the US] is collapsing rapidly. Of course, we are prepared to fill the gap. - Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, President of Iran - Hinting at a power vacuum in Iraq.

Makes one wonder, are we just filling and vacating places in this life? Egyptians replaced by the Assyrians who were replaced by the Babylonians who were replaced by the Greeks who were replaced by the Romans.

Poses one to concede, what the 17 year war-conflict was between Iran and Iraq? The latter is virtually non existent. And probably in the near future the former would be too.

Time does make us look at our actions more sensibly; implicitly we apprear pretty stupid doing the things we do, today.
