From an obituary for a Kennedy advisor
who reportedly died at 94 on February 23, 2014*—

“He favored withdrawing rural civilians
into what he called ‘strategic hamlets’
and spraying defoliants to cut off
the enemy’s food supply.”

Other rhetoric:  Hamlet and Infinite Space  in this journal,
as well as King of Infinite Space , Part I and Part II.
These “King” links, to remarks on Coxeter  and  Saniga ,
are about two human beings to whom Hamlet’s
phrase “king of infinite space” has been applied.
The phrase would, of course, be more accurately
applied to God.

at Princeton discussed in this afternoon’s post.
