And the UK? Well, unless something happened that I missed, I'd definitely put my money on the other guys. The worst part is that these leaders are generally going against the will of their people. Part of the signed letter reads The attacks of 11 September showed just how far terrorists — the enemies of our common values — are prepared to go to destroy them. The enemies of our common values? You mean like the right to free speech and fair process? Funny how our common values are theirs to define, and how easy they are to ignore when it suits us, huh? I think we should all be in fear of anyone who talks about our common values, as if they were actually some tangible thing owned by us, judged by us. Especially because most of these terrorists are using the the same language in their propaganda. Edit When I first read Brad's post, I thought he was being ironic... perma link |
