Consequences of 9-11
http://www.analphilosopher.com/posts/1117665440.shtml


   Thomas Friedman thinks 9-11 changed things. See [1]here. He's right.
   It awakened Americans from their dogmatic slumbers. We now know that
   we are envied and hated throughout the world--especially the Muslim
   world--and that we must protect ourselves both domestically and
   internationally. The war in Iraq didn't cause the envy and hatred, for
   these vile emotions preceded the war. The war in Iraq is our waying of
   showing our enemies that we will not tolerate their crimes.
