...changes at hand usually call for protectionism. Those who expect to benefit tend to insist that the free market instead be given free rein. Neither option works very well. In the U.S. as well as in Europe and other developed economies, every job moved offshore leaves a tiny hole in the fabric of middle-class life. There are gains to the world economy, but those are not so immediate as the pain of a lost job. For those who have been laid off or are worried they will be, it is tempting to fight to stop-or at least delay...

A car bomb is clearly the work of an amateur. A couple of amateurs in a small boat blew a hole in the U.S.S. Cole. The discovery of the J.F.K. plot is a good thing. Nobody knows the extent of the disaster that could have happened if the plot had been allowed to develop. Americans want to thwart all attacks, whether the terrorists are amateurs or professionals.
