Tuesday Open Post/The Right Attitide About Terrorists
This is my Tuesday Open Post. Link to this post and track back. More below the post.
For more on developing the right attitude toward terrorists, may I commend to your attention the “escape fiction with a none too hidden message” found in The Weapon, by Michael Z. Williamson. A brief sample from chapter six…
I hate terrorists. To me, anyone who attacks civilians in lieu of soldiers (collateral casualties do happen, but aren’t an excuse to be abused) is a gutless turd. I don’t care what the historians have to say about Lenin, the “Irish Republican Army” (which was neither Irish, Republican, nor an army), Hamas, al Qaeda… or any other group of thugs in history, or those running around now. They attack civilians to create terror, to force a government to yield. They do not attack politicians directly, or soldiers or cops. They attack civilians “because they have no choice” (and because their penises are too small for real fights and they lack the intelligence to stage real revolutions)… I don’t care how “noble” the cause is, how oppressed you feel you are, how “romantic” or “elegant” it is to shoot kids, blow up offices, destroy marketplaces, you will get naught but a bullet from me. If you want a fight, call me. That’s why I’m here.
Oh, there’s much more in that vein, of course. Buy a copy and start passing it around to weenie faux liberals you know. Tell them it’s a Libertarian anti-war book or something. *heh* It’s available here, here or here, at various prices and in various formats.
Sure, it’s light reading, not “literature” at all—something to zip right through for purely entertainment value—but Williamson does tell the story well, and his protagonist has the right attitude about dealing with terrorists…
Of course, it’s really about waging war on government anarcho-tyranny… the worst form of terrorism, where citizens are turned into subjects by force or threat of force and petty bureaucrats rule.
Oh, and about irony. Massive, gargantuan irony… *sigh*
