How in the world can you look at the events of the past two months (euphemistically referred to as the “9/11 events”) and consider it an “opportunity for change” that we shouldn’t “waste” by bombing bad guys? Right, we should stop considering the events as a case of “us vs. them” and go ahead and sing Kumbaya. After all, there’s no way that Bin Laden and friends will bomb us again if we tell them we are all happy and global-minded now. Yep, that’s fuckin’ logical.
Seriously, I actually read someone’s journal that called the recent attacks “an opportunity for change” that we shouldn’t be wasting by blowing up caves in Afghanistan. While I certainly wonder if the method for our “war” is effective, just telling them we’ve seen the errors of our ways sure won’t work.
