The 'Privacy' Jihad







The 'Privacy' Jihad

The 'Privacy' Jihad 04/10/2004 01:07 AM

Immediately after 9/11, politicians and pundits slammed the Bush administration for failing to "connect the dots" foreshadowing the attack. What a difference a little amnesia makes. For two years now, left- and right-wing advocates have shot down nearly every proposal to use intelligence more effectively--to connect the dots--as an assault on "privacy." Though their facts are often wrong and their arguments specious, they have come to dominate the national security debate virtually without challenge. The consequence has been devastating: just when the country should be unleashing its technological ingenuity to defend against future attacks, scientists stand irresolute, cowed into inaction. With these words Heather Mac Donald starts her piece titled "What We Don't Know Can Hurt Us" for City Journal, where she is a contributing editor. It's about 8,000 words long. A shorter version titled "The 'Privacy' Jihad" (about 1,500 words) appeared in the Wall Street Journal (free-as-in-beer registration required). Recognizing that many "left- and right-wing advocates" ("libertarians" per the WSJ version) refuse to access URLs that require registration, a copy is available at www.purl.org/net/tbc/privacy_jihad.htm. It is reprinted with her permission.

Jon Carroll: We are Unitarian Jihad, and our motto is: “Sincerity is not enough.” We have heard from enough sincere people to last a lifetime already. Just because you believe it’s true doesn’t make it true. Just because your motives are pure doesn’t mean you are not doing harm. Get a dog, or comfort someone in a nursing home, or just feed the birds in the park. Play basketball. Lighten up. The world is not out to get you, except in the sense that the world is out to get everyone. And, I kid you not, my assigned Unitarian Jihad Name is: Brother Atom Bomb of Love and Mercy. Get yours.

Militants in Europe Openly Call for Jihad and the Rule of Islam The call to jihad is rising in the streets of Europe, and is being answered, counterterrorism officials say. In this former industrial town north of London, a small group of young Britons whose parents emigrated from Pakistan after World War II have turned against their families' new home. They say they would like to see Prime Minister Tony Blair dead or deposed and an Islamic flag hanging outside No. 10 Downing Street.
