Irony

Arch-purveyors of postmodern irony, CNN International, tonight offered us this alarming headline:

"More advanced societies, more vulnerable to attack"

-- How to protect yourself from "Cyber Terror"

It seems we in the "advanced" world have more to lose than anyone else... we're not even safe behind our laptops.

no "terror" can be effective if people aren't afraid.
the trouble is, at heart, most people ARE afraid.
afraid of facing themselves in the mirror.
afraid of losing something because they don't know what they have.
afraid of growing old because they haven't really lived.
these people become the majority.
teach them to fear an invisible enemy,
and they run to the state for protection.
