War During Ramadan
Six days ago I urged the U.S. continue to fight, including bombing, in Afghanistan during Ramadan. (See 10/23/01, 10:19:24 AM below). During the past weekend other voices are saying the same thing. Most recently, The Post & Courier, Charleston, S.C., editorialized in favor of continuing the fighting during Ramadan. It may not go over too well with some Southerners, but in war we ought to remember General Grant's promise: "I purpose to fight on this line if it takes all summer."
