Meeting of the menace and the moron

It feels like yesterday when then-Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad called George Soros "a moron" and Soros calling Dr. Mahathir "a menace." So, what happens when these two meet 10 years on?

Apparently, it seems that all may have been forgiven. As Jeff Ooi noted, "there's no permanent friends, and there's no permanent enemies." The meeting focused more on the importance of global peace. And it is interesting to note that the two have something in common --- their critical opinions of George W. Bush's foreign policy.

The two agreed that Bush's policy of waging wars would not help in bringing about global peace. But perhaps, Tun Dr. Mahathir and George Soros stopped short of calling George W. Bush a "menacing moron" or a "moronic menace."

How apt would that be then?
