The sooner newspaper columnists & their ilk stop living in denial (How old is Roger Cohen anyway, 206? How can he not know any better by now?) &/or come to the realization that "slaughter for its own sake" is merely the natural reaction of rats in a cage w/ too many rats, not the very manifestation of existentially threatening "evil" the better, if only because it would spare us hand-wringers like this pretending-to-be-horrified-&-uncynical (I may actually be the cynic here; Cohen could well be the fucking moron he appears to be, rather than someone unwilling to face grim reality but more than willing to crank out the platitudes for rent money & status.) whining drone.
Any paragraph starting w/ a sentence as obviously inane as: "It is human to seek for reasons" should be shredded w/ extreme prejudice. Esp. if it never concludes such idiocy w/ the note that there are seldom to never "reasons," no matter how many times the inner columnist asks mommy or daddy "WHY?" at the top of its whining little voice.
