Boxing Day Tsunami 2004
Can this be an opportunity for the West to undo some of the damage of the last hundred years and start trying to haul us out of the hole we're in?
Can we respond whole-heartedly enough to disarm the propaganda machine of Al Qaida?
Or will we screw it up again as we did in the 90's with our failure to fund the reconstruction of the ex-Soviet bloc, and in 2001 when we failed to understand the degree of sympathy for the attacks of 9/11?
