"'Terrorism' is what we call violence of the weak, and we condemn it; 'war' is what we call violence of the strong, and we glorify it."The above quote comes via a fellow Aussie blogger, Antony Loewenstein, a Jewish-Australian journalist who knows a thing or two about a thing or two.
- Sydney Harris.
It's always nice to hear clear, coherent arguments on complex issues, and Lowenstein's blog is a very good read indeed. I found him again (I lost touch after the demise of Margot Kingston's Web Diary) after reading an article of his in New Matilda, an online Aussie magazine with a lot of promise. Check them out if you have time...
