When we accidentally kill the president of Afghanistan’s cousin, maybe we should take it as an omen that we’re not supposed to be in that country. I mean, if you’re into looking for signs, this could be one of those signs that kind of screams, “Get the Hell Out.” I’m just saying. We could just announce that if anyone pulls a stunt like 9/11 again, we’ll behave with even less introspection and react with four times the senseless violence. That ought to be a strong deterrent, and we can and probably will make good on the promise. If anyone doubts our capacity for stupid destructive behavior, they deserve what they get. As for the innocent victims, maybe people should think about them before they poke us in the eye. I’ve given up hope that we’re capable of using our heads. We don’t want to even try.
