Also discussed is the recent move by President Bush away from isolationist foreign policy as a result of the terrorism of 9/11.
From the Paper:
"At one level, this question is unanswerable in the same way child abuse and rape are incomprehensible. For people who do not believe that violence is ever acceptable except to defend oneself or other innocent people, it is impossible to fathom what would motivate people to harm innocent bystanders, an element in so much of terrorism. But, clearly " given the number of terrorist acts that occur in the world " to other people terrorism is something that simply makes good political sense: Realpolitik carried to logical extremes."
