Superb obliteration of Bush administration's idiotic claims that the US responded appropriately to 9/11.

This is what the Hoosiers call "How the Cow Ate the Cabbage." This is the kind of journalism, perspective and information that allows our country to believe it has the world's best health care, and that all Muslims are terrorists. Share this with your friends. The most thoughtful, scholarly general publication in India, a far more democratic state than we are, tells it like it is from outside the borders of the US.
