Derrick Z. Jackson: US leading exporter of tools of death
Brent Bozell
And there's Boston Globe columnist Derrick Z. Jackson. On Sept. 12, with the Pentagon and the World Trade Center still burning, Jackson threw gasoline on the fire by placing America's values squarely on par with those of the terrorists: "With all the condolence that can be offered, it is incongruent to think that the world's leading exporter of the tools of death and destruction would not someday be visited with an evil in return." A week later Jackson returned with another screed against his country: "When stock traders sing 'God Bless America,' and (New York Stock Exchange CEO Dick) Grasso says, 'America is ready to go back to business,' it is unclear how much of America's business is worthy of God's blessing."
