08/26/2002 Archived Entry: "CNN and the twisting of my mind"

If anyone feels that we should lay off Afghanistan and the Middle East and just give peace a chance, I challenge you to sit through CNN's Flash-enabled tribute to September 11 without having your mind changed. I sit here at my desk at work with something trembling in my breast that can only be described as quiet rage.

Negociation is not an option. Compromise is not an option. The gauntlet is down and all that can possibly remain is death. I say send forth the troops and the tanks and the fuel-air mixture explosives and kill every last son of a bitch who would presume to attack the United States. Fuck the people who believe the war was America's fault. The fault lies with the ignorant savages who aren't content to merely grub and squabble over the shithole desert in which they dwell--savages who look with drooling hatred at our way of life and hide behind a twisted interpretation of a religion already based on contradiction and fantasy.

The first step in preparing a populace for war is dehumanizing the enemy.

Check. Done. I hate them with an automatic, soulless hate.
