Bush Squander

Occasionally Mr. Friedman stumbles onto acorns of pure wisdom. I cannot agree more with his statement: "George W. Bush completely squandered his post-9/11 moment" (from: Radical in the White House). Truer words were never spoken.

Unfortunately, the biggest piece of squander to come out of 9/11 was the Iraq War. It is worth remembering that Thomas Friedman was one of its biggest cheerleaders. He continues his support of Bush Era war crimes with his support of Israel's bombing of civilians in Gaza. But I'll let Glenn Greenwald take it from here: Tom Friedman offers a perfect definition of "terrorism".
