...attacks of Sept. 11. Hasan’s assertion that Coulter “openly advocated the wholesale destruction of the entire Muslim and Arab world” is inaccurate, offensive and absurd. At the event, at least, she did not “brazenly advocat[e] cleansing American soil of [all] Muslims,” but responded to questioners only by suggesting that for security reasons, illegal immigrants who could no longer be legally detained for suspected terrorism ought to be deported.

They'd spent six years educating themselves on terror's ills and elixirs, turning this corner of the Bible Belt into one of the largest concentrations of terrorism experts in the country. As with the Trade Center attacks, regular folks had lost all their co-workers in minutes. Some families lost all their children. They started using words like "hypervigilance" and "a new normal" in everyday conversation...
