The tragedy in Spain |
[Mar. 11th, 2004|04:28 pm] |
I just learned about those horrible bombings that happend in Spain this morning. It is really difficult to say something meaningful here. A really, really, really sad day... My heart goes out to the victims and their families.
These terrorist acts expose vulnerability of a developed democratic society that relies on peaceful means to resolve internal conflicts. It is clear that our civil liberties will be negatively affected. The question is - do we have enough courage and wisdom to protect ourselves from real, as well as imaginary threats?
I hate to say that, but it feels like we are in the 3rd year of world war IV.
