Unconsciously ashamed of our own action in using the bomb

What is it with liberals and their need to carry around all this guilt all the time? No wonder they're all moonbats. They've driven themselves insane.

Jeez, this sounds just like the idiot author of a book I had to read last semester. In Parallax Visions, Bruce Cumings says that the United States was worse than the Nazis and Japanese combined because we used the atomic bomb. He also implies in his updated preface that the evil George W. Bush was behind Sept. 11th.

We had some fun arguments in class over that book.

You know 60 years ago this would have been called sedition.

Carroll gets close to truth, however. Fear of nuke TERROR is the heart of the GWOT. In historical context, it is simply the continuation of the war of civilization with murderous, barbarian chaos that has continued from the time of the first walled cities.

Check out the elaborate fortifications from the year 1000 and after in Europe. Elaborate, expensive defense and justified paranoia have been the signature of our culture since the fall of the Romans.

Nukes make walls useless, and so here we are trying to root out organized, well financed terror funded by proxies. It is amazing that liberals think that barbaric forces can be reasonable; it never worked with Tamerlane or Gengis Khan, who generally slaughtered entire populations wholesale.
