Please excuse the little screed about "imperialism." To oppose the CFIA, it is first necessary to reject even the possibility of a successful development, measured in terms of the people of a country, by American investment. It is possible, I will admit, that after continuous massive doses of foreign aid, as in Formosa, an underdeveloped country can experience an increase in per capita income...
...CFIA, for the first time. I was an object. Spending time with me was an investment. They had learned to maximize profits, and a pleasant chat with a foolish undergraduate would be well-spent. "We'll give you all the time you need, provided that we get a fair story." I wonder if that's the way the DAS works...

In 1902. a naturalized banker named Jacob Schiff put up the money for the museum, which opened in 1903. I wish I could have heard the negotiations between the Near Eastern Languages Department and the Center's founders over the building's change in function...
...chief motivations for blowing up a building is the sheer malignity of, for example, the CFIA. If we may for a moment lapse into a non-rigorous use of moral epithets, we might go so far as to include the CFIA in a category of existential evil. That means that put into any context, what the Center is doing is bad. With the destruction of such evil, you may be able to endow an action with meaning. It may be, in fact, the only way to do so.

...responsible. It is up to those who act to judge the consequences to themselves. It is up to others in the movement to try to ascertain the consequences for the rest. I think, though, that I could almost argue the opposite. The Weatherman attack on the CFIA made the subsequent Guided Tour much more palatable. When blacks burnt down stores in ghettoes, they legitimized bus boycotts and sit-ins. Blowing up buildings would make sit-ins and building occupations that much easier...
