Reader comment on item: Sheikh Obama and His Two Wars
in response to reader comment: Re: one for two
Submitted by Winston Smith (India), Dec 20, 2009 at 03:16
i completely concur with David here. fighting one form of extremism with other form of extremism makes no sense. it reminds me of a famous email forward which carried slogans from angry protestors. One of them said "Bombing for peace is like ... for virginity!" it is important to retrospect our views and judge them if they really belong to us or our religious, cultural, nationalist or some other assumed identities?
