The Null Device

Those are dangerous ideas there, citizen: In the US, deluded libertarian extremist Harry Browne has claimed that the terrorist attack was a response to "insane" US foreign policy. Which makes some sense (witness the US government's history of unilateral bombing of troublesome Middle Eastern states, overthrowing of inconvenient democratically-elected governments in Latin America, support of murderous yet friendly military dictatorships and so on; not quite the republic that Jefferson et al. had in mind, and one can see how some people could be pissed off about this). Not that that in any way excuses the horrific atrocities committed against innocent civilians in New York and Washington. Sometimes it seems like there is little hope for humanity.
