11 september


As a Nepali living in the US, I mourn for the many innocent lives lost in the barbaric acts of terrorism on 11 September. While I totally understand the immediate feelings towards the want for revenge and retaliation, I too felt them and continue to feel them. Terrorism didn't spring-up overnight and it will not go away with a one-time strike as you say in "Kamikaze" (#60). Countering terrorism will take awareness and education of societies, religions, histories, and peoples, and we all need to do our part.

I take offense at your comment ("Kamikaze", #59) that the personal threat to Asians is due to the "insular media and education" of Americans. I am an American. I have had the finest education in the world. It is not lack of education of Americans or our media not making us aware of the world outside our borders.
