More Kurtz

The Corner on National Review Online: "So the very receipt of powerful weaponry from allied nation-states makes terrorist groups more likely to take destabilizing risks–especially because they don’t have countries to defend, or a public to whom they are accountable. Terrorist groups are simply organizations composed of people who live to die. Now substitute weapons of mass destruction for rockets and you see how quickly a rogue state in league with a terrorist organization could plunge the world into a nuclear conflict, even when it doesn’t intend to do so."
Sonuvabitch did it to me twice in one day.

The imponderable is our reaction to an untraceable event, and what may follow - and whether we are right in our assumptions of who did it, or are proven wrong. Or if our inability to know paralyzes us into inaction.
