Thank you, John, for the Nicolaus Mills essay. It is exceedingly important, in times when people dispassionately discuss the politics of war, with little weight given to the motherness and fatherness and childness which is in the folks whose lives are suspended in the unbalance, that we consider the moral necessities above the weighing of political feasibilities. When we forget that, we permit a part of the beast to penetrate our souls without resistance. More than once, I've found myself staring at my own aggressive words, thoughts and feelings post-9-11 and wondering "Now where the hell did that come from?" The essential unilateralism is the one we each possess, the one that should be screaming 'murderer!' at the Gujarat Hindus as vociferously as we do so with Al Qaeda. The only necessary ally is our conscience.
