Christopher Hitchens: Terrorist attacks aren't caused by any policy except that of the bombers themselves.

Topics: Terrorism

From the words of Christopher Hitchens comes wisdom that continues to escape our friends on the left.

The return of murderous nihilism to Bali is highly instructive. It shows, first, that the fanatics of Islamism don't know how to stop. And it also shows that they never learn. How can Jemaah Islamiyah, which almost ruined Indonesia's economy by its filthy attack three years ago, possibly have tried to repeat the same crime in the same place? If we look for answers to this question, we shall find answers that completely discredit the current half-baked apologies for terrorism.

As we are reminded by Hitchens, one should never make the mistake of asking for rationality, when it comes to Islamists.
