Good column by Thomas Friedman in today's NYT:
http://www.nytimes.com/2001/09/14/opinion/14FRIE.html
"These terrorists must be rooted out and destroyed. But it must be
done in a way that doesn't make us Osama bin Laden's chief recruiter.
Because these Muslim terrorists did not just want to kill Americans.
That is not the totality of their mission. These people think
strategically. They also want to trigger the sort of massive U.S.
retaliation that makes no distinction between them and other Muslims.
That would be their ultimate victory because they do see the world as
a clash of civilizations, and they want every Muslim to see it that way
as well and to join their jihad."
