September 11 retrospective: Video from Al Jazeera English's "Empire" program: "9/12 and the 'war on terror' "

This is quite a good discussion of the 9/11 attacks, their background and their repercussions in American foreign policy. Even Peter Beinart has some good observations in it.

FEATURED QUOTE

"It is the logic of our times
No subject for immortal verse
That we who lived by honest dreams
Defend the bad against the worse."


-- Cecil Day-Lewis from Where Are The War Poets?
