ICH today
But
why should we hear about body bags, and deaths, and how many, what day
it's gonna happen, and how many this or what do you suppose? Or, I
mean, it's, it's not relevant. So, why should I waste my beautiful mind
on something like that?" : Barbara Bush on ABC - Good Morning America, March 18, 2003

" ... No "terrorist" gene is known to exist or is likely to be found... Surely the(y), and their supporters were afflicted by something that caused their metamorphosis from normal human beings capable of gentleness and affection into desperate, maddened, fiends with nothing but murder in their hearts and minds. What was that? Simple logic says that we must go to the roots of terror. Only a fool can believe that the services of a suicidal terrorist can be purchased, or that they can be bred at will anywhere: Ouch Borith: Permanent Representative Of The Kingdom Of Cambodia To The UN: 10/03/2001

The problems of this world are so gigantic that some are paralysed by their own uncertainty. Courage and wisdom are needed to reach out above this sense of helplessness. Desire for vengeance against deeds of hatred offers no solution. An eye for an eye makes the world blind. If we wish to choose the other path, we will have to search for ways to break the spiral of animosity. To fight evil one must also recognize one's own responsibility. The values for which we stand must be expressed in the way we think of, and how we deal with, our fellow humans: - From the Christmas Message 2001 of HM Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands

Obviously her mind exists on a higher plane than the poor buggers being cluster bombed by her idiot son.
Barbara Bush's quote brings to mind the words by Marie Antoinette "Let them eat cake."
