Normalizing evil



The father of beheaded journalist Daniel Pearl points it out and asks, “When will our luminaries stop making excuses for terror?”

A movie was made about Daniel Pearl, A Mighty Heart, and it starred one of my favorite actors, Dan Futterman (above), but I could not bring myself to see it. I knew it would upset me too much. Hey, even thinking about it upsets me. Now.

Things like that are partly why I blog "Distractions".

Mr. Pearl describes his murdered son as "a true believer in the goodness of mankind."
