"If you're horrified by what happened on Sept. 
11, it's hypocritical not to be equally moved by 
casualties elsewhere. . . ."

Would you feel as much anguish when a family 
perishes halfway across the globe due to famine, 
or if everyone in your own family was killed by a 
terrorist bomb? 

Ideals, civilities, and generalities are fine for 
people who play by the same rules. Unfortunately, 
it is seldom the case and even less so for 
international politics and behavior.
