A Middle Eastern Disney World would ensure lasting peace in Iraq by easing fear and anger among children, according to Deepak Chopra, the popular self-help guru.
The idea is one of 10 suggestions Dr. Chopra outlines in an essay that is to appear today in several European newspapers. He also suggests free access to CNN news and MTV music videos will encourage Iraqis, who face the imminent threat of a U.S.-led invasion to unseat their leader, Saddam Hussein, to "feel like part of the world."
Brilliant!
Because the reason why Iraqis don't have CNN and MTV is because we're pricing them too high. And someone should tell Chopra that Iraq has a theme park, (Saddamland) but only Ba'ath party officials and their guests can use it.
What kills me about this article (http://www.nationalpost.com/national/story.html?id={A52C4A9B-D09F-4B34-A4A1-190E4A0F1254}) is how seriously it seems to take Chopra's... ideas. I guess it's meant to be satire?
