Hello Thomas & others on this TB! list & following this thread,
Tuesday, September 11, 2001, you stated regarding Terrorist Attacks:
TF> Hi Douglas,
TF> Yes, it has. You don't understand martyrdom.
Neither do would be Martyrs.
DH>> the backlash will be profound and this may spell the end of
DH>> Their acts have made them become too visible, too destructive to
DH>> remain protected. They will be eliminated.
TF> You scare me.
My work deals with sustainable development, Tom (& I think you knew
that). What I foresee is simply logical & highly likely. Obviously,
those responsible must be identified & as I suspected, someone in
one of the planes did manage to contact her husband via cel phone,
so that will probably happen. This might turn out to be another JFK
type affair, but that one too was delved into by many competent
(& some less so) investigators & if US hawks were involved, that too
will come out.
My main point is simple: When a tragedy or crisis occurs, some don't
react & some overreact. The important thing is to react
appropriately, which requires evaluating what has occurred & the
alternative scenarios, then making an informed (& accurate) decision
In the context of my own life, minimizing risks & dealing w/
hostility & (usually incongruent) "true believers" is an an everyday
thing, but I try to never lose sight of my original objective, which
to to help build a better and more life giving world.
Are US politics good for all? They're often not even good for the US
itself. Does that justify this kind of action? No way, never.
Violence generates more violence and sustainable ag development
emphasizes control over eradication (the Prohibition didn't work
either).
In terms of the original objective of this list, all this is really
OT so we should do it off TBUDL &/or TBTech. I prefer private mail
(& am not subscribed to TBOT) but don't have a great deal more to
say about this topic at this point. IAC, nothing more from me will
be post on list on this topic.
Douglas
