I'm thinking about the stuff Bob Wright's always saying about cognitive/strategic empathy, and the article you shared in tonight's roundup from Marcetic about Washington's war pigs wallowing in their own filth. This news is obviously a huge turning point, but it doesn't mean any major prediction henceforth is a foregone conclusion. *Even if* diplomacy over the last few months could not have righted this ship (as you said, we'll never know)-- that doesn't mean it's a lost cause going forward.

I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but I feel like it's worth keeping in mind.
