A call for learning

Something I ran across:

"2. Why were we attacked?
>> >
>> >Envy of our position, our success, and our freedoms."

I recommend reading "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man" by John Perkins, or "Blowback" or "The Sorrows of Empire" by Chalmers Johnson. Then test your retention by looking at the above tidbit and see if your reaction to it is anything but disdain.. anything but a sorrowful sense that ignorance is taking a firm hold in our "advanced" society.

Oh, did I mention that the war in Iraq is a criminal act of aggression? Almost forgot.
