21 March 2003 - incarnation of evil
< yesterday --
tomorrow >
Hi, I’m the incarnation of evil—no, no, my name is not
important. It’s delightful how all the religions have it
wrong, and I’ve never been one to mess up a bad thing.
I’m here today to appeal to all the wrong-minded people
of the world to take advantage of the chaos in Iraq.
Sadly, one of the most enjoyable governments on Earth
is soon to perish, but look on the dark side—the
forces of good can never equal our own in purity and
fervor, for woven into the very fabric of good are the threads
of greed and fear that we can grasp for their unraveling.
Quickly, my minions, seize the chance to destroy, and
patiently, my fellow activists, drive deeper the wedge
of moral ambiguity until at last we split asunder the
limestone fragments of the rule of law, not only between
nations but, at the end, within them as well. The righteous,
as well I know, fall farthest, and every soul at
Guantanamo, prisoner or guard, is by our side. For evil!
