Mike, here is some interesting comment by Norman Mailer on WTC and Bush's political rhetoric.
news.bbc.co.uk

Evil

Mr Mailer believes that this is the reason that George Bush speaks in terms of an axis of evil. He is highly critical of the President's political rhetoric.

"The fact is I don't trust a man who uses the word evil eighteen times in ten minutes," he says.

He tells Newsnight presenter Kirsty Wark that America takes solace from having an evil enemy.

Mr Mailer says, "If you're half-evil, nothing soothes you more than to think the person you are opposed to is totally evil."
