Bill Bennet has put together an incredible piece ,here. Here’s the money quote:
We learn a great deal from our losses; we learn even more from loss than from gain. Right after 9/11, the nation was united in its grief and united in its desire to prevent another attack. We need to re-summon that moment. We are in a war. And though it may not feel or look like wartime here, in America, our enemies are not resting. It is wartime for them. We need to grieve the loss of Nicholas Berg, along with all our brave men and women overseas. We need to thank them. And, now, more than ever, we need—as Shakespeare wrote—to “make medicines of our great revenge” and fight for them, for ourselves, and for the last, best hope of Earth.
