AMERICA'S INNOCENCE RAVAGED ON 9/11
September 11 has placed open societies and their democratic values at the crossroads of victory or subjugation. No intellectual quibbling or obfuscation can cover or evade this fact. Fanatic Muslim terrorists pose a threat to civilized societies of biblical proportions, especially if they acquire weapons of mass destruction, and worse. from rogue states.
Yet the liberal intelligentsia, a la The New York Times, in its necrophilous stance, attempts to shift the blame from the terrorist perpetrators to their victims. In their mind's eyes, September 11 was America's comeuppance for the ills the latter had "rained" upon the poor and oppressed of the world by spreading its rapacious eagle's wings over the globe in its pursuit od dominance and empire.
Hence, the terrorist threat is subordinated and replaced by the liberal invention of its own "evil empire". Turning logic on its head, the threat posed by fanatic terrorists against the West, is turned into the threat of the "Lone Avenger". But that the latter might ride through the canyons of America, in his pursuit of punishing evil, not with six caliber pistols in his holsters but with nuclear weapons, is of no concern to liberals. Hence, the [/b]Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are all liberals.[/b] Foreordaining the destruction of Western societies by a fanatic horde of religious barbarians.
But for the historically savvy, and fot those who have lost their innocence by the ravaging and ominous attack of 9/11, there is no other alternative but to fight this mortal foe and its state sponsors, with no quarter given. In a world where multilateral weakness is unwilling to confront the great dangers of our time, only unilateral action by the strong, as a last resort, is the only option.
New challenges impose new methods of resolving them. Conventional diplomacy, under the auspices of the dilatory, weak, and corrupt, UN, is defunct.
