{UAH} I'M HAVING MY DOUBTS ABOUT THE LUWERO WAR!
Friends,
According to mathematician Samuel Arbesman's book, "The Half-Life of Facts:Why Everything We Know Has an Expiration Date," many stuff taken as facts today will be shown to be wrong as early as five years from now. Samuel argues that a study published in a physics journal will lose half its value in 10 years.For instance, on 20th March 2010, I wrote an article on UAH forum justifying the Luwero Bush war led by president Museveni but, I must admit, that I'm now having my doubts! Its just that it seems the war produced more hedonists rather than patriots, and that's sad! I now wonder how one goes about determining whether a war is justified or not?
