The Face of Evil

In case you were wondering, or had forgotten.

If you ever wonder why our kids are in Iraq, or what exactly the war on terror is about, all you have to do is listen to Zacarias Moussaoui "t(ell) jurors Thursday he has 'no regret, no remorse,' was disgusted by the heart-rending testimony of victims and relatives and only wished they had suffered more."

I always thought Moussaoui was a little bit crazy. I mean, you have to be to orchestrate and execute something like the 9-11 attacks. But as General Taylor tells Sgt. major Dickerson in Good Morning, Vietnam, "you're not crazy, you're just mean."

Whether or not you agree with how the war on terror has been prosecuted, how can you not be chilled when you hear Mossaoui's testimony and his view of America and its place in the world.

Moussaoui's vitriol is what is being taught in the streets in much of the Muslim world, by mullahs and others who seek to keep the pot stirred and indoctrinate the impoverished and hopeless by beating the drum against the United States.

If you ever need a reminder of why we must remain ever vigilant, just hear Moussaoui's own response to the prosecutor's question of if he would be happy to see a repeat of 9/11:

"Every day until we get you," replied Moussaoui.
