There's a lot of excess arm waving in Zizek's remarks, but his main point is clear and unexceptionable: "America's 'holiday from history' was a fake: America's peace was bought by the catastrophes going on elsewhere. Therein resides the true lesson of the bombings: the only way to ensure that it will not happen HERE again is to prevent it going on ANYWHERE ELSE."
