It seems only fair to ask where, on the spectrum of barbarism, we would locate the killing of Iraqi civilians, the razing of Fallujah, the depravity at Abu Ghraib prison and the self-righteous obscenity at Guantánamo Bay. And how about the abandonment of the desperate hurricane victims in Louisiana and Mississippi? In Iraq, limitless U.S. resources are deployed while at home poor Americans, thirsty and starving, founder in toxic effluent. All around the globe, people are watching, incredulous, as the Bush Administration displays...
