Yeah! What you said! BTW, can you translate this gem [from above] for me. I am confused:

"The obvious implication is that the struggle against terrorism is ultimately a struggle of ideas, which can be dealt with only by intellectual and philosophical means. But this fact does not depreciate the crucial role of our armed forces. On the contrary, it increases their effectiveness, by pointing them to the right target."

Does this mean our soldiers should be trained in Objectivist theory? Is the military now tasked with correcting the epistemological errors of the Iranian mullahs? Helfen mir.

Yep, Lenny's still waiting for ol' Ayn to rise from the dead and smite the dimwits who dare to reject her novels. Objectivists just kill me. The very first thing they suggest to anyone is that they read "Atlas Shrugged".

L. Ron Hubbard's Scientiologists could show them how to build a pseudo religion around a fiction writer.
