My feeling is that the Left ought to stress that S11 was a global crime against citizens from literally hundreds of countries, requiring long-term, global solutions, i.e. police action and arrests of the perpetrators, rather than retaliatory strikes which will spark a decade of chaos in Central Asia. The local Peace & Justice folks here in Eugene distributed an excellent poster, a satellite image of planet Earth with the words "One Planet / Indivisible" beneath it, a subtle counterpoint to the ubiquitous "One Nation / Indivisible" posters showing a US flag. Our small, fragile, achingly beautiful planet never looked better.
