Just like the RedStaters. Ignorant, fearful, driven by three-million year old tribal impulses --

Sigh.

Don't forget how much Kirk hated Klingons. If it means the survival of the human species --

just because we aren't openly genocidal like the Nazis doesn't mean the Russians can't see us tilting elections and overthrowing governments right on their border, and even invade countries two steps from their doorstep.

We had a chance for real peace and more stable world at the end of the Cold War, and the financial elite decided strip mining more profit out of Russia was worth the risk of a world war.

One time spouse of Barbara Eden. Sadly, he left us July 31, 2013.

He played more than one role for Star Trek, and of course was commonly cast on TV in the 1960's and in film.

His bio is interesting, as are his castings.

Michael Ansara

Always liked him.

Ansara had an extensive career as an actor and he certainly added depth to the role of Kang on Star Trek.
