“The Nature of Political Terrorism The suicidal assassins of September 11, 2001, did not “attack America,” as political leaders and news media in the United States have tried to maintain; they attacked American foreign policy.

“Never has America lost a war ... But name, if you can, the last peace the United States won.

Consider how quickly America seems to be facing its allies of one war as new enemies.”
