Terrorists can have serious moral goals, says Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams. Furthermore,

“Violence is not to be undertaken by private persons,” he said. “If a state or administration acts without due and visible attention to agreed international process, it acts in a way analogous to a private person. It purports to be judge of its own interest.”

A nation protecting its self-interest? God forbid!
In related news, here is an interesting story on Shirin Ebadi, the winner of this year’s Nobel Peace Prize: “Why the Mullahs Fear Her“

From what I’ve read so far, Ebadi is truly heroic. And it’s a strange but pleasant surprise that she, a real freedom-fighter, would be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Maybe the whole world hasn’t completely lost its mind yet. :)
