Word, yo. There was a similar column in the Globe and Mail today.

I'm not suprised, though I didn't see it. I used to get the Globe delivered but found that I hardly read it the second year I had it. It's still set as my homepage, but I only really see the front page stuff unless I'm specifically searching the site.

I'm certainly not a supporter of murder, but it really pisses me off every time these sorts of events are dismissed as being enormous fits of jealousy over our fairytale free way of living.

The morning this happened I remarked to a few friends that it wasn't all that suprising, given the global distrust of Tony Blair. Those I was speaking with were suprised that I thought the culprits were probably British and said that obviously it was "another extremist attack on freedom". Give me a break.

Ignorance and fear: Fuel for the modern democracy!

I share your disgust.
