Britt Blaser has a terrific post that begins by quoting Tim Bray‘s right-on suggestions: Do our best to ignore the terrorist attacks (because the terrorists want our attention) and try to figure out the “Why” of it.

Unfortunately, our leader — confusing understanding with justifying — thinks asking “Why?” is akin to treason, and our news media is capable of spinning JFK Jr.’s aircraft accident into 48 hours of “No news on the missing plane” coverage. So I’m not very hopeful about these ideas that are so common-sensical that they’re practically Canadian. [Technorati tags: HomelandSecurity TimBray BrittBlaser media]
