I have had along time interest in trying to understand different global perspectives,ever since I had a three hour visit with a Russian in the East Berlin Russian Embassy in 1992 about Cuba, just after the Cuban Missile Crisis in October, 1962. That visit with the first Russian I had ever met, taught me that there are different points of view to every issue. This article raises some pointed questions for those of you interested in current world events, particularly in the Middle East.
