There are moments in time when I am immensely proud to be a Florida Gator. Thursday was one of them. No, it wasn’t due to many students’ impressive performances on St. Patty’s Day. It wasn’t even due to our dominance in basketball. It was due to the sight I witnessed at the candlelight vigil in commemoration of the disaster in Japan. Hundreds of students sat huddled in the Reitz Union Amphitheatre. There were students from all communities and cliques. Unity prevailed as all the students joined in praying for those affected by the tragedy and committing to doing all they can to help. We heard emotional tales of those here who know individuals who lost their homes and even their lives. Though the words were in Japanese, the emotion transcended language and generated compassion from all in attendance.

Why would he emphasize and repeat his intentions of keeping U.S. troops off Libyan soil? Obama is seeing what we’re seeing — a frighteningly familiar scenario of international forces intervening in a country on the brink, complete with the undertones of terrorism and the memorable words of a crazy dictator. We’ve seen this movie before, and we know how it goes. Or do we?
