Do9n't attribute this to me. I didn't say the remarks were pro forma or sparse. Maybe they were in NYC, or maybe Nathan would find them so in Chicago, and maybe some of the families of the Sept 11 victims would not be satisfied (and others might), but I heard strong, clear, unequivocal condemnations. Maybe Nathan thinks that it's equivocal to say, as I did, that the NLG doesn't believe in bombing buildings with airplanes or from airplanes. But if we spend all of our time denouncing the Sept 11 events, when we will deniunce the war? jks
