So, on the 9th November 2001, all hell broke loose, and I am not going to add to the millions of column inches that have already been devoted to this tragic event. However, to mark its anniversary (strange word to use given its celebratory connotations), journalists have
gone to town on terrorist philosophy. This one in particular caught my eye;
Daniel Finkelstein uses the analogy of bribery (
very Zeitgeist) to cleverly denote the very philosophy promoted by ally forces with regard to our "war on terror", as if terror were some identifiable nation.
