COLUMN: Walking a mile in Palestine's shoes
September 20For more than a quarter century I have been an ardent supporter of the Palestinian cause, of freeing their homeland from Israeli soldiers and colonists and all the brutality and suffering involved in the Occupation. This has not been easy path to tread since most Americans know little about Palestine beyond what they are told by a biased media and elected officials utterly terrified of Zionist money opposing them in their next election.

September 19I know many of us are tired of discussing, hearing and reading about last week's tragic events. However, I believe the catastrophic loss of life was a wake-up call to American society and to us as human beings. It was a wake-up call because in many ways we let it happen.

LETTER: U.S. goals shouldn't include more death
September 19Obviously, the provocation of Sept. 11 requires a decisive response. If we are thoughtlessly emotional about the method of that response, however, we may end up supporting the terrorists' goals and desires. They are evil, but they are neither cowards or stupid. A huge enemy body count is not the answer.

COLUMN: Afghanistan needs Marshall Plan
September 19It's been more than a week since the terrorist attack, and the full magnitude of what is happening still hasn't sunk into our national consciousness. As the United States begins its revenge, we should reflect on the fact that these terrorists - guerilla fighters of the most cowardly sort - planned and executed this operation over a long period. This was not a sudden decision on their part. They were thinking ahead, looking at the big picture. This small group of fanatics had more foresight than we as a nation have shown in a long time.
