Lileks on "Violence never solves anything"
2001-10-04
  • James Lileks
    One hates to bring up something as inconvenient as history, but war was a jack-dandy solution to that nation's Final Solution. By the protesters' logic, D-Day was just a big karmic disaster -- if we'd just waited, the Nazis would have collapsed of their weight, just like the U.S.S.R. Granted, it wouldn't have happened until 1977, and by then Europe would have been blond and blue-eyed from Gibraltar to the Urals. But at least we wouldn't have stooped to their level.
