When it came to America and burgers and Mickey Mouse, their anger exploded.

A friend in Paris asked me what I thought of my visit there after the attacks.
I told her I found it frustrating because there didn’t seem to be an real rage. She barked, “I’m sorry your day trip was frustrating. I can assure you people are mad and grieving.” This was the most passionate I’d seen her about the whole thing. It was the same with everyone I spoke to. When it came to America and burgers and Mickey Mouse, their anger exploded. When it came to a religion dedicated to murdering them, it was nothing but ennui.

When the dood's standing on the window sill of the 40th floor you're not doing anybody any favors by talking him out of it, you've just stretched the fuse.

Leave them to their fates.
