Thanks, Caspar. If there are two false assumptions Americans need to rid themselves of:
(a) The illusion that in a matter like this one, they can "go it alone".
Nothing could be further from the truth.
(b) The illusion that all the casualites were American.
The Brits are counting casualites in the hundreds, the Chinese, Japanese, Australians and many, many others in their own numbers. After all, this was the "World Trade Centre" and not an Iowa grocery store.
This is a challenge of the "good vs evil" variety to all of us everywhere. No issue could be more black and white than this one. Let's not get sidetracked in details of mere nationality. Solving this problem requires bending the international constructs of the past to suit the cure. That process has already begun.
The American response to this challenge has so far been outstanding.
