An encounter with a reader
on war and empire

 

In April 2003 one of my observations in the "Stop and think" department — concerning the loss of the Iraqi antiquities on the Empire's watch, and the general barbarism of modern warfare in general — ignited a firestorm with one of our readers. It may be that I let the discussion grow beyond reasonable dimensions, but it did afford our TLD writers, and some friends of TLD as well, a chance to try and hammer home a few salient points.
