Resist the temptation to react to this tragedy with greater anger than justice

I cannot express the grief I feel at this heinous evil and the madness^(*) that will follow.

*The Madness that will follow:

Former Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger called on the U.S. to flatten Kabul: "We've got to be somewhat irrational in our response. Blow their capital from under them." ⁽¹⁾ ``I say, bomb the hell out of them. If there's collateral damage, so be it. They certainly found our civilians to be expendable.'' (Sen. Zell Miller ).^(1a)
Two thirds of those surveyed by CBS News said the United States should retaliate even if innocent people are killed. ⁽²⁾ Ninety percent would risk war. Arab-Americans attacked throughout USA. ^(2a)
"Bin Laden's awakened people to the need to use weapons not used before, including nuclear weapons, on Afghanistan."⁽³⁾^&^(3b)The potential battlefield stretches from Mindanao to Morocco, from Tanzania to Kazakhstan. ^(3a)
The call has already gone out ... for us to "strike back one hundred times harder." If the terrorists have killed 50,000 innocent Americans, then somehow we will set this right by killing 5,000,000 innocent people. ⁽⁴⁾
"This is WWIII." ⁽⁵⁾

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
