17 January 2003From bad to worseSometimes the simplest questions stir the greatest passions. "Which is worse?" asks Joshua Claybourn. "Communism or terrorism?" The comments are instructive. (My own contribution, at #3: "You can have terrorism without communism, but the historical record suggests that you can't have communism without terrorism.") And another question comes to mind: does the ongoing war on terrorism constitute Cold War II? Just a few days I ago I was thinking "This is starting to look like Cold War II."
