A country inside Vienna
Does anyone knows anything about this? That a man created his own private country inside Vienna? I've heard it from a friend and became very interessed in the subject. It was not a political or an art project. Just his own country.

Freedom, you silly liberals! FREEDOM!
On resolving possible cognitive dissonance re: the Iraq war and resultant fallout. I guess I'm finding myself wondering if the war somehow managed to be simultaneously unjustified and better than not going to war. It is not a happy wondering.
