Come on, you know that my dear "fallow traveler" and grouchy socialist didn't support any war on Afghanistan, qualified or unqualified. The fitful warmongering in the subject line refers to the following remark by Katrina Vanden Heuvel: "The Nation does believe that America has the right to act in self-defense. We supported, for example, the use of qualified military force in Afghanistan in response to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11."

"For example" sounds ominous, too. -- Yoshie
