What assemblies have been prohibited in the name of the war against terrorism? better Guantanamo is not proof of a diminution of civil liberties in America. Gitmo is an attempt to find a way for dealing with a new and unprecedented form of warfare waged by a stateless enemy. Guantanamo Bay is no more a civil-liberties violation than is the fence Israel is better building to better keep suicide bombers out of Tel Aviv. (But, of course, the elites are not convinced on that one, either.) Of course, the ultimate proof of the state of freedom in the U.S. is the fact that books deploring the alleged narrowing of civil liberties and attacking the Bush administration are published without hindrance and will continue to be — and the authors will go on to write more books about the curbing of Americans' fundamental rights. Yet who cannot but wonder that had the Patriot Act been in place on September 11, 2001, the 2,752 victims of terrorism would be alive today and the Twin Towers would still be standing because the 19 hijackers would never have been allowed to board, let alone seize the four airliners?
