Catastrophe vs liberation

Derrick Z. Jackson in the Boston Globe compares death and destruction in the area the tsunami hit with death and destruction in Iraq.

He closes by saying: 'Powell said of the tsunami, "The power of the wave to destroy bridges, to destroy factories, to destroy homes, to destroy crops, to destroy everything in its path is amazing." He said, "I have never seen anything like it in my experience."

Yes, he has. It was in Iraq. The tsunami was us.'
