"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace in a continual state of alarm (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing them with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."

ABC News: Cole Attack Planner Escapes Yemen Prison
An al-Qaida operative sentenced to death for plotting the USS Cole bombing that killed 17 sailors in 2000 was among a group of convicts who escaped from a Yemen prison last week, Interpol said Sunday in issuing a global security alert. If we aren't illegally detaining or torturing prisoners, we are letting them escape. Sigh.
We are so awesome. We just look like a bunch of fucking geniuses don't we? I'm Chaz Atlas and that's how I see it.
