Today's quote

Osama bin Laden had been saying for years, 'America wants to invade an Arab country and occupy it, an oil-rich Arab country.' We stepped right into bin Laden's propaganda.

Richard Clarke

Duh.

By way of Michael Bérubé, who mentions this quote in the context of pointing out how Michael Berman doesn't understand this point. Extra credit for checking out Bérubé's terrific review of Berman's Terror and Liberalism, which is the only interesting article I've ever seen from the pages of Tikkun.
