Time has shown that Malaysia's prime minister (Mahattir?) was right in his comments regading the crisis of end of nighties!
You need to understand what IS hypocrisy... There is a scale to everything in the universe - also degrees of truth. When you start out saying you are at one extreme, but then go to the other end of the scale - then you are called a hypocrite. But like everything in life - hypocrisy is just about being able to use evolution and adaptation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_adaptive_system http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_of_truth One such scale of the universe is the bivalent scale of "nothingness" towards "infinity". If you understand this phrase above - you will understand more than you ever imagined possible. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koan
