AMEN: John Derbyshire lets 'em have it on NRO:
"I am a Christian. I acknowledge Christ as my Redeemer. I attended Holy Communion this morning, took the blessed sacrament, and prayed with all my heart, along with the rest of the congregation, for peace and justice in the world. Yet if the IDF were to flatten the Church of the Nativity and kill all the gunmen holed up in it, I wouldn't mind a bit, though I'd hope for the hostage priests to somewhow be spared. Look: the War on Terror is a W-A-R. We shelled Montecassino, didn't we?"
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
